What is promised in Love, Is Recorded still above, And whatever Vows we make, Let us keep for true Loves sake, Tis binding, tis binding, and we still, we still must own it, They are Perjur'd, they are Perjur'd who disown it. Let our Love be just and true, For there's none I love but you, Let whatever each impart, Be lock'd up in ' tothers Heart, That no one, that no one but our selves, our selves may ever, Once be able, once be able to discover. Whilst we secretly do Love, No one can our Joys remove, Nor can any one molest That which is hid in the Breast,
'Tis Treasure, 'tis Treasure whilst we there, we there can keep it, From all Rivals, from all Rivals that do seek it. Take this Kiss with promis'd vow, To keep secret what we do, Let our Love be private still, That we may enjoy our fill, In Loving, in Loving to the height, the height of pleasure, Let our Love be, Let our Love be without measure. How happy that Pair does prove, Which are Secret in their Love, For each Night they sport and play, Sweetly pass the time away, In Kissing, in Kissing, still there is, there is no missing, While in private, while in private we are Kissing.
