Guard My Heart Well
By Alice Vo Edwards

I give my heart
Unto thy keeping
Guard it well and faithfully.
Never scorn it for another - 
Treasure it,
	My love,
		Gladly.
Always tell me
	That you love me.
Never let our passions dim.
Never leave my heart untended,
Or cast it by on faithless whim.
Nay, forever
	Passions burning
All returning,
	Come to me
And I shall,
	In loving pleasure
		In full measure
Return such vows to thee!
