How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My
soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal
Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and
candlelight. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee
purely, as they turn from Praise. I love with a passion put to use In my
old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed
to lose With my lost saints, -- I love thee with the breath, Smiles,
tears, of all my life! -- and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better
after death. -Elizabeth Barrett Browning-
