Request for a reading

As many of you know Se7en and I are getting married in September. We are working on our vows now and thought it would be nice to include a reading, a short poem or piece of prose that is consistent with Virian beliefs. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know about readings, poems or prose, but this is a lovely nuptial appropriate song. Grab it off your fav P2P network and have a listen if you haven't heard it before.

[Blunderov] My warm congratulations to you both.
'What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure.
In delay there lies no plenty.
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty;
Youth's a stuff will not endure.'(Twelfth Night)
WAS SHAKESPEARE AN ATHEIST?
http://www.2think.org/shakespeare-atheist.shtml
<excerpt>
Robert Ingersoll thought so. In a popular lecture, the nineteenth-century
freethinker extolled a great infidel, "the sublimest man of the human race,"
who deemed all religions "simple phases of human thought, or the lack of
thought." In 1783, Joseph Ritson had broached a similar view. In Remarks on
the Last Edition of Shakespeare, Ritson said the poet was unshackled by "the
reigning superstitions of the time, addicted to no system of bigotry
[whether] Popish or Protestant, Paganism or Christianity." More recently,
Walter Kaufmann descried a self-sufficient Nietzschean übermensch (superman)
"abandoned to a life that ends in death, with nothing after that" (From
Shakespeare to Existentialism). </excerpt>
Best Regards
