“I would rather spend one moment holding you than a lifetime knowing I never could.”
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks.
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved.
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

I loved you first, but afterwards your love outsoaring mine,
..For one is both and both are one in love:
Rich love knows nought of 『thine that is not mine;
Both have the strength and both the length thereof,
Both of us, of the love which makes us one.
