Dulce dona mihi tu mittis semper Elisa!
Et quicquid mittis Thura putare decet.
Imitation
Sweet Gift! and always doth Elisa send
Sweet Gifts and full of fragrance to her Friend
Enough for Him to know they come from Her:
Whate'er she sends is Frankincense and Myrrh.
Semper Elisa! mihi tu suaveolentia donas:
Nam quicquid donas, te redolere puto.
Translation
Whate'er thou giv'st, it still is sweet to me,
For still I find it redolent of thee.
