Thou hast left death for my companion
and i shall crown him with my life.
Thy sword is with me to cut asunder my bonds,
and there shall be no fear left for me in the world.

From now i leave off all petty decorations.

Lord of my heart,
no more shall there be
for me waiting and weeping in corners,
no more shy and soft of demeanour.
Thou hast given me thy sword for adornment.
No more bride's decorations for me.
