The comforts are so sweet
...When two do meet.
'Tis plenty, peace, a calm
...Like dropping balm;
Love's weather is so fair,
...Like perfumed air.
Each word such pleasure brings
...Like soft-touched strings;
Love's passion moves the heart
...On either part;
Such harmony together,
...So pleased in either.
No discords; concord still;
...Sealed with one will.
By love, God made man one,
...Yet not alone.
From: Fulfillment
William Cavendish (1592-1676)
