HYMN CXXXI

A woman's love-charm

Down upon thee, from head to foot, I draw the pangs of long-
ing love.
Send forth the charm, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
of me.
Assent to this, O Heavenly Grace! Celestial Purpose, guide it
well!
Send forth the charm, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
of me.
If thou shouldst run three leagues away, five leagues, a horse's
daily stage,
Thence thou shalt come to me again and be the father of our
sons.
