2. Delightful pearl, you are dazzling to me,
3. Ivory Calypso, with you I would like to flee,
4. Venus, I adore your soul fully, not in part.
5. Immense, terrifying is my love dart,
6. Naiad, I would like to kiss you by a tree,
7. Electra, at your sight I go on my knee,
8. Rose, in heaven our eternal wedlock will start.
9. Echo, I love you with all my human might,
10. Brilliant, your immaculate heart I adore,
11. Ethereal feather, I would swoon at your fine sight.
12. Candid swan, I think of you day and night,
13. Chaste Daphne, your holy platonic love I implore,
14. Angel, in heaven you will be my pure delight.
Yours faithfully and eternally
