EPITHALAMIU M 



OW in very truth thou art, 



Sweetheart, mine ; 

 Mine to hold close to my heart 

 Mine to have, and ever prove, 

 Arcady is in my love, 



Sweetheart mine. 



But before the nuptial door, 



Sweetheart mine, 

 Closes on the nevermore, 

 That first troth I would approve, 

 Arcady is in thy love, 



Sweetheart mine. 



Folded in caressing arms, 



Sweetheart mine, 



^Crowned with Love s supremest charms, 

 Thy content and rapture prove, 

 Arcady is mutual love, 



Sweetheart mine.
