1. Rebecca, I love your holy, immaculate heart,
2. Eternal deity, I am enthralled by you,
3. Bright star, I am sweetly sighing for you,
4. Ethereal Daphne, of your pure soul I make part.
5. Candid swan, in heaven our wedlock will start,
6. Chaste Athena, I know what I have to do,
7. Angel, to glorify you, I must die for you,
8. Dear, my love is carved on marble, not on chart.
9. Ivory Leda, my sweet heart is beating for thee,
10. Aphrodite, I think of you day and night,
11. Mystic love, now I am dying for thee.
12. Oh, Diana, at your sight I go on my knee,
13. Naiad, I love you with all my human might,
14. Divine diamond, your sacred heart I see.
Yours faithfully and eternally
