"No mournful days
Shall haunt the one I love
Nor bitter Mays
Her lips shall e'er speak of..."
Conveys a sentiment in the form of a vow that "none of these things will torment the one I love, because I won't let them." The final four lines express the ironic concept of how a selfless and unselfish love can actually be in one's own self-interest, and how you can look out for yourself by looking out for others, especially that special someone.
"For my reward
Is not in selfish greed
The one adored
Shall profit me indeed..."
