At last the love I've waited for has come. (No shame to say so: more to cover up). My Camenae called on her in prayer, and Cytherea brought him to my heart. Venus kept her promise: now she can tell my tale of joy to those who don't believe. I hardly want to give this letter up so no one else sees it before he does. I'm glad I did it — why wear a prudish mask, as if he wasn't good enough for me!
