] Song from "Arcadia"
] Philip Sidney

] My true love hath my heart, and I have his!
] By just exchange, one for another given.
] I hold his dear, and mine he cannot miss.
] There never was a better bargain driven.
] My true love hath my heart, and I have his!

] His heart in me keeps him and me in one,
] My heart in him his thoughts and senses guides.
] He loves my heart, for once it was his own:
] I cherish his, because in me it bides.
] My true love hath my heart, and I have his!
