Head and Heart

My Love, my love, I bid thee know

That my heart hath loved thee all this time;

And even as my spirit go,

Heart will not follow and break her bind.

For Head and Heart can never agree,

Thus, neither do Spirit and Soul;

And even as I part with thee,

My sorrow, like thunder, rolls.

Head, the center of Rationale,

Despise erratic Emotion;

While Heart, enthralled by passionate morale,

Doth embrace her child before Caution.

And in all this madness my Love never fails;

Though Logic and Spirit and Head prevail.
