XLIII!. "How do I love thee!? Let me count the ways!.!.!."
by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)

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 candle-light!.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise!.
I love thee 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!.
