I am creative, courageous and honourable. I have many strengths.

I have power, intelligence and wit.

I use these qualities to empower, protect and bring happiness to others. I joyfully surrender them to she who knows and cherishes their value.

There is no greater deed than to give oneself utterly to another.

I offer myself in heart and body to my Mistress, my Lady; so that I may be fulfilled by meeting her needs, and that she may expose me to the very

core of my being, learn my strengths and weaknesses and teach me to

better know myself.

My self and my strength and my love are hers to call her own, in honour of her beauty, her wisdom and her strength, which mirrors and enhances my own.

I serve her with honesty, valour and trust. I avoid putting myself first, but not at the expense of my identity. I seek always to clearly communicate my needs and my fears to her.

I am her champion, her warrior, the guardian of her honour - as she requires. I will defend her to the uttermost limits of my strength but, standing before her, I lay aside all defences.
