“I will practice humility: putting my beloved before myself, expecting no praise or reward, for now we are joined in all things.
I will practice compassion: giving gratitude for my beloved, suffering when they suffer, for now we are joined in all things.
I will practice courage: for protecting my beloved from harm, facing all fears from within or without, for now we are joined in all things.
I will practice goodness: offering freely of myself to my beloved, honoring and caring for each other in body and soul, for now we are joined in all things.
I make this pledge to you and you alone, under the eyes of the gods in Heaven, from this moment until the last one of my life.”
