The greatest crown of love is loyalty;
The staunch conviction: two hearts beat as one
Within life’s realm of trust and sanctity,
Where sacred oaths can never be undone.
Here lies the purest form of human faith,
Love’s solid pledge to Heaven’s God above—
Soul embracing soul in celestial grace,
Entwined forever in enduring love.
So may such unions stand as glory-blessed
Where trials may rack, yet love stays ever true
And of stout bonds that evil may dare test—
Fealty born of truth—binds me to you.
No greater rapture on this earth to find
Than hearts united, timeless and divine.
