“I conjure thee, and all the oaths which I
And thou have sworn to seal joint constancy,

Be my true Mistress still, not my feign’d Page;
I’ll go, and, by thy kind leave, leave behind
Thee, only worthy to nurse in my mind
Thirst to come back;”

This ultimate infection,
Star of my eyes, my being’s inner flame,
My angel and my passion!”
