If it is true, Chloris, that you love me, and I have heard that you love me well, I do not believe that kings themselves can match such happiness as mine. Even death would be powerless to come and change my fortune for all the joys of heaven! All that is said of ambrosia does not touch my imagination like the grace of your eyes!

We hope the words of this Gaelic blessing may hold true for you and your kin:
