There by no means was a greater discount pushed,
My real love hath my coronary heart and I’ve his.

My coronary heart in him his ideas and senses guides,
He loves my coronary heart, for as soon as it was his personal,
I cherish his as a result of in me it bides,
My real love hath my coronary heart and I’ve his.
