My Bounty is as boundless...

"My bounty is as bounless as the sea, My love as deep; the more i give to thee, the more I have for both are infinte." - William Shakespeare (Romeo & Julliet)


My interpretation of non-shakspearian english:
What I have to give to you is as endless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to you the more I have for both are endless.

 

How do I love thee...

"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.

-How Do I Love Thee? (Sonnet 43)" — Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Its amazing how many people know the first line of this sonnet, but can't seem to finish the rest. Anyways I just wanted to post it because lastnight I was talking about it.
