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 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, and all my life -- and, if God choose,
   I shall but love thee better after death.
我如何地爱你？让我逐一细数。
我爱你，爱到我的灵魂於玄冥中
探索存在和完美神恩的极限时所能企及的深度、广度、高度。
我爱你，就像阳光下烛火边每日不待说出口的需求那般。
我自由地爱你，如人争取正义，
我纯粹地爱你，如人不求称誉。
我爱你，以我往昔悲痛时日所用的热情，以我童年信念。
我爱你，用那似已随我的圣者消失的我的爱——
我爱你，用我一生的呼吸、微笑、泪水——
而且倘神意如此，死后我会更爱你。


值得！

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
    With my lost saints, -- I love thee with the breath,
    Smiles, tears, and all my life
