Wedding Sonnet

From pledges concord true souls be married, 

When false impediments confounded be?

Where love's token rings in honour carried, 

Emblazon those bound in Eternity. 

So two star'd lovers kiss at eyes ascent, 

Made ardent by love's joy for each other, 

Which flows at glasses raise to now augment, 

A revelry of Belles with Beau's cover. 

What fair surpassing fair can excel this?

This loving scene of possessing gladness, 

This summer fate made Summer by love's blss, 

This lovers knot held tight in happiness. 

Thus by hearts giving and receiving oath, 

Is love sworn won and sworn is love to both.
