 CHAR.  PRINCE OF NAVARRE, MY HONORABLE BROTHER,
PRINCE CONDE, AND MY GOOD LORD ADMIRAL,
I WISH THIS UNION AND RELIGIOUS LEAGUE,
KNIT IN THESE HANDS, THUS JOINED IN NUPTIAL RITES,
MAY NOT DISSOLVE TILL DEATH DISSOLVE OUR LIVES;
AND THAT THE NATIVE SPARKS OF PRINCELY LOVE,
THAT KINDLED FIRST THIS MOTION IN OUR HEARTS,
MAY STILL BE FUELED IN OUR PROGENY.
 NAV.  THE MANY FAVORS WHICH YOUR GRACE HATH SHOWN
FROM TIME TO TIME, BUT SPECIALLY IN THIS,
SHALL BIND ME EVER TO YOUR HIGHNESS' WILL
IN WHAT QUEEN MOTHER OR YOUR GRACE COMMANDS.
 CATH.  THANKS, SON NAVARRE.  YOU SEE WE LOVE YOU WELL,
THAT LINK YOU IN MARRIAGE WITH OUR DAUGHT . . .
