Blood of my Blood

The whole Pas­sage from Drag­on­fly in Amber:

“We are bound, you and I, and noth­ing on this earth shall part me from you.“One large hand rose to stroke my hair.“D’ye mind the blood vow that I swore ye when we wed?”
“Yes, I think so. ‘Blood of my blood, bone of my bone…’ ”
“I give ye my body, that we may be one,” he fin­ished. “Aye, and I have kept that vow, Sasse­nach, and so have you.” He turned me slightly,and one hand cupped itself gen­tly over the tiny swell of my stomach.
“Blood of my blood,” he whis­pered, “and bone of my bone. You car­ry me with ye, Claire, and ye can­na leave me now, no mat­ter what hap­pens. You are mine, always, if ye will it or no, if ye want me or nay. Mine, and I wilna let you go.”
I put a hand over his, press­ing it against me.
“No,” I said soft­ly, “nor can you leave me.”
“No,” he said, half-smil­ing. “For I have kept the last of the vow as well.” He clasped both hands about me, and bowed his head on my shoul­der, so I could feel the warm breath of his words upon my ear, whis­pered in the dark.
“For I give ye my spir­it, ’til our life shall be done.”
