Handfasting Vows
“My most beloved,
Accept the oath of love which I offer thee.
I vow this jewel, as I vow my soul,
Ever to be at thy service.
Like its beauty will my heart be strong,
Like its value my love will endure.
Accept it, my chosen one,
For all which is mine
Will now be thine.”
*****
“Above thee are the stars,
Below thee are the stones.
Remember always,
Like a star should thy love be constant,
Like the Earth should thy love be firm.
Possess one another, yet be understanding.
Have patience, for storms may come and go.
Be free in giving of affection and of warmth.”
