I Adore You

I love thee with a soul of tenderness outpoured,Upon the heart and spirit—not the body's word.

I love thee with a flood of loyalty whose tideHolds naught but immortality and bliss beside.

I love thee, love thee, till my final hour shall cease,I give thee, give thee all my costliest increase!
