A Red, Red RoseO, my luve’s like a red, red rose,That’s newly sprung in June:O, my luve’s like the melodie,That’s sweetly play’d in tune.
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,So deep in luve am I:And I will luve thee still, my dear,Till a' the seas gang dry.
Appreciating
Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,And the rocks melt wi' the sun!And I will luve thee still, my dear,While the sands o' life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only luve,And fare thee weel, a while!And I will come again, my luve,Tho' it were ten thousand mile!

How do I love thee?How do I love thee?
• How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.I love thee to the depth and breadth and heightMy soul can reach, when feeling out of sightFor the ends of being and ideal grace.I love thee to the level of every day'sMost 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 useIn my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.I love thee with a love I seemed to loseWith 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
