Question

Thou wast all that to me, love,

Answer 1

Answer: Both recall an all-consuming love

Explanation:

The ideas in the excerpt similar to Poe’s ideas in the first stanza of Annabel Lee as both of them recall an all-consuming love.

Even after the death of the woman, the speaker still loved the woman even though she wasn't alive anymore. This can be seen in Annabel Lee when it was written that the angels in heaven nor the demons below can ever dissever the soul from her soul. It showed that true love endures forever and it's an all consuming love.
