Love shall be our token love be yours and love be mine.

Christina Rossetti

About This Quote

This quote needs no introduction—at least for now. We're working on adding more context soon.

Interpretation

The line frames love as a shared “token”—a sign or pledge that binds speaker and addressee in mutual belonging. Its parallel structure (“love be yours and love be mine”) emphasizes reciprocity rather than possession: each party retains their own portion of love, yet both are joined by the same principle. Read in Rossetti’s idiom, the simplicity and incantatory repetition can suggest a vow-like utterance, where love functions as both gift and covenant. The phrasing also hints at love’s durability: a token is something carried or remembered, implying constancy even across separation or change.
