1 I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely
sea and the sky,
2 And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer
her by,
3 And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and
the white sail’s shaking,
4 And a grey mist on the sea’s face and a grey
dawn breaking.
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve’s like the melodie
That’s sweetly played in tune.
As fair art thou, my bonie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will love thee still, my Dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:
O I will love 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!
“I love thee to the level of everyday’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.”
Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)

Sonnet 55 by William Shakespeare

“She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies”
