  quote: ''
  summary: The speaker says Love’s secret treasure, seal, and key remain unchanged;
    loyal lovers still shed pearl-like tears. He asks the winds about the beloved’s
    perfume, describes being wounded by the beloved’s brows, and waits for healing.
    He compares rubies in mines to blood from his wounded heart appearing on the beloved’s
    lips, then asks the beloved’s curls not to waylay and plunder his pilgrim soul,
    ending with a song about the still-deep fountain of tears.
