In the poem "To My Dear and Loving Husband", the phrase “ought but love from thee, give recompense” (line 8), most nearly means—
All I’ve earned and desire from you is your love in return
As my husband, you owe me much more than love
I love you even if you do not return my love as you should
We deserve more from life, but our love is enough to sustain
