HYMN CXXXI

A woman's love-charm

1Down upon thee, from head to foot, I draw the pangs of long-
   ing love.
  Send forth the charm, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
   of me.
2Assent to this, O Heavenly Grace! Celestial Purpose, guide it
   well!
  Send forth the charm, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
   of me.
3If thou shouldst run three leagues away, five leagues, a horse's
   daily stage,
  Thence thou shalt come to me again and be the father of our
   sons.
