High
Indeed
Is the prize
For loving much!
Grieving is the prize
That must be paid for it;
Blessed are the sorrowing,
And all those that hurt in their loss,
For the grieving shall be comforted!

Though the prize for love be very high,
Do pay this high prize willingly,
For so great a thing as love
Paying much is proper;
Sorrow is sacred;
But remember
Prize for love
Must be
high!

Your meaning is strong and well taken
-------------------------------------------------
I get your gist, the dead be missed
It's worth the price because
The time you had together,
Is the payment for the loss...
