Power of earth to move his feet
Across the mountains, here to me.
Water's power to plumb the depths
of the storm - toss'd briny sea.
True love's image, I invoke
Powers of air, and red - hot fire;
One to burn him with my glance,
One to stoke my heart's desire,
Seven knots I double - tie
Moon and candles light the way
Seven knots for me and love
Entangled heart in heart to say.
-- Joy Randall
