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 every day's
Most quiet need, by
sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely,
as men strive for right.
I love thee purely,
as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the
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.
Sonnet XLIII
