Swear by all passing passions,
By the falling leaves
Swear by the wave-torn tempest
Swear, and I'll believe.
Swear by the sand-print handprint,
By the ice and snow.
Swear, and I'll believe you'll stay
Until the day you go.
Swear by all that's mutable,
Changeable, and free.
Swear by your unfaithfulness and
Swear by me.
