4. Ethereal feather, I am suffering for you.
5. Candid swan, I adore your shiny candour, you,
6. Chaste Daphne, I kiss your icons by a green lime,
7. Angel, I love your heart since you are sublime,
8. O, I adore your sacred heart, it is true.
9. Sensational diamond, I am with thee,
10. Precious pearl, you are dazzling to my eyes,
11. Oh, Deity! At your sight I go on my knee.
12. Unique Athena, with you I would like to flee,
13. Sun, every second to your soul my heart flies,
14. Eternal spouse, your immaculate heart I see.
Yours faithfully
