Where I was base as is the lowly plain, <br />And you, my Love, as high as heaven above, <br />Yet should the thoughts of me your humble swain <br />Ascend to heaven, in honour of my Love. <br /> <br />Where I as high as heaven above the plain, <br />And you, my Love, as humble and as low <br />As are the deepest bottoms of the main, <br />Whereso'er you were, with you my love should go. <br /> <br />Were you the earth, dear Love, and I the skies, <br />My love should shine on you like to the sun, <br />And look upon you with thousand eyes <br />Till heaven wax'd blind, and till the world were done. <br /> <br />Whereso'er I am, below, or else above you, <br />Whereso'er you are, my heart shall truly love you.<br /><br />Joshua Sylvester<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-s-omnipresence/
