I asked of my desolate shipwrecked soul
"Wouldst thou rather never have met
The one whom thou lovedst beyond control
And whom thou adorest yet?"
Back from the senses, the heart, the brain
Came the answer swiftly thrown
"What matter the price? We would pay it again
We have had, we have loved, we have known!"
