## The words

I asked my desolate shipwreck'd soul  
"Would'st thou rather would'st thou rather  
never have met the one whom thou lovedst  
lov'dst 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 lov'd, we have known!" "We have had,  
we have lov'd, we have known!"
