1 Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took,
2 And each doth good turns now unto the other:
3 When that mine eye is famish'd for a look,
4 Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother,
5 With my love's picture then my eye doth feast
6 And to the painted banquet bids my heart;
7 Another time mine eye is my heart's guest
8 And in his thoughts of love doth share a part:
9 So, either by thy picture or my love,
10 Thyself away art present still with me;
11 For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move,
12 And I am still with them and they with thee;
13 Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight
14 Awakes my heart to heart's and eye's delight.
