From this day on
<p>I did not expect my ordered mind to yield,</p><p>Nor wish my careful sentiments undone;</p><p>Yet in the quiet firmness of your speech</p><p>I felt my every former resolve depart.</p><p><br/></p><p>You spoke not to persuade, but simply were—</p><p>So honest that resistance lost its use.</p><p>My pride, once held with such determined care,</p><p>Laid itself down before your constancy.</p><p><br/></p><p>From that first moment, sense no longer ruled</p><p>Where feeling spoke with reason’s gentler voice;</p><p>I found my heart already understood</p><p>What I had scarcely dared to name as truth.</p><p><br/></p><p>Thus stands my answer, plain and unwithheld,</p><p>As sure as any vow could hope to be:</p><p><br/></p><p>“You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love you.</p><p>I never wish to be parted from you from this day on</p>
