  1. How Do I Love Thee?

    by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

     

     

    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 with the breath,

    Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,

    I shall but love thee better after death.
