EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 38. NO PERJURY IN LOVE by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: WHAT MORTAL LOVERS SWEAR, PROTEST AND VOW
Last Line: DO SIGNIFY NO MORE THAN 'KISS MY BR -- CH.'
Subject(s): LOVE;
WHAT mortal lovers swear, protest and vow,
Heaven looks upon but just as common speech:
'Refuse me if I don't' -- 'Confound me -- now'
Do signify no more than 'kiss my br -- ch.'
