1 Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took, 2 And each doth good turns now unto the other: 3 When that mine eye is famish'd for a look, 4 Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother, 5 With my love's picture then my eye doth feast 6 And to the painted banquet bids my heart; 7 Another time mine eye is my heart's guest 8 And in his thoughts of love doth share a part: 9 So, either by thy picture or my love, 10 Thyself away art present still with me; 11 For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move, 12 And I am still with them and they with thee; 13 Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight 14 Awakes my heart to heart's and eye's delight. |
