| BETWIXT mine eye and heart a league is took | |
| And each doth good turns now unto the other: | |
| When that mine eye is famish’d for a look, | |
| Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother, | |
| With my love’s picture then my eye doth feast, | 5 |
| And to the painted banquet bids my heart; | |
| Another time mine eye is my heart’s guest, | |
| And in his thoughts of love doth share a part: | |
| So, either by thy picture or my love, | |
| Thyself away art present still with me; | 10 |
| For thou not further than my thoughts canst move, | |
| And I am still with them and they with thee; | |
| Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight | |
| Awakes my heart to heart’s and eye’s delight. |
W. Shakespeare
