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, of all my life! - and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The body of a sensualist is the coffin of a dead soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2035]]></link><description><![CDATA[The body of a sensualist is the coffin of a dead soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes your medicine bottle has on it, "Shake well before using."
