De Suo In Lesbiam Amore Ep. 88.

Richard Lovelace 1618 – 1657



DE SUO IN LESBIAM AMORE.  EP. 88.

Nulla potest mulier tantum se dicere amatam
  Vere, quantum a me Lesbia amata mea est;
Nulla fides ullo fuit unquam faedere tanta,
  Quanta in amore suo ex parte reperta mea est.

                  ENGLISHED.

No one can boast her self so much belov'd,
Truely as Lesbia my affections prov'd;
No faith was ere with such a firm knot bound,
As in my love on my part I have found.
