First lines
When thy heart, love-filled, grows graver, / And eternal bliss looks nearer, / Ask thy heart, nor show it favour, / Is the gift or giver dearer?
Love, love on; love higher, deeper; / Let love's ocean close above her; / Only, love thou more love's keeper, / More, the love-creating lover.
