Ada "I hold this to be pretty clear" (fwd)

I'm sure it's clear, but I can't work it out!

On page 161 of the Weidenfield edn. of "Ada", Marvell's "The Garden" is
the key text to a simple cypher used by Van and Ada.

While I do find the first letter of "love" l2.11 "l" "pretty clear", I
can't follow the other 2 (?) letters: l1.2.20 and l2.8.

I would appreciate what may be a statement of the obvious.

kind regards - Ross Chambers
