INDEX OF FIRST LINES.

[blocks in formation]

As it befell

As it fell upon a day

Ask ye me why I send you here?

A slumber did my spirit seal

As Memnon's marble harp, renowned of old

As ships becalmed at eve

As unto blowing roses summer dews

As vonce I valked by a dismal svamp

A sweet, attractive kind of grace.

A sweet disorder in the dress

At anchor in Hampton Roads we lay

At summer eve, when Heaven's aerial bow

At the approach of extreme peril.

At the King's gate the subtle noon

Avenge, O Lord, thy slaughtered saints whose bones MILTON

[blocks in formation]

Farewell, farewell to thee, Araby's daughter

A wet sheet and a flowing sea
Ay, but to die, and go, we know not where
Ay! tear her tattered ensign down

Bankrupt, our pockets inside out
Beautiful! sir, you may say so

Beaver roars hoarse with melting snows
Before the starry threshold of Jove's court
Before thy stem, smooth seas were curled
Behold a silly tender babe

Being asked by an intimate party
Beneath an Indian palm, a girl

Below the bottom of the great abyss.

Be thou blest, Bertram! and succeed thy father
Better trust all, and be deceived

Between the dark and the daylight
Between the acting of a dreadful thing
Birdie, birdie, will you, pet

Blackened and bleeding, helpless, panting, prone
Blow, blow, thou winter wind

Blue crystal vault and elemental fires
Bonny Kilmeny gaed up the glen

Brave Schill, by death delivered

Break, Fantasy, from thy cave of cloud
Breathe, trumpets, breathe slow notes
Bright flag at yonder tapering mast

Bury the Great Duke

Busk ye, busk ye, my bonny, bonny bride

But all our praises, why should lords engross

But are ye sure the news is true?

But fare you weel, auld Nickie-Ben.

But for ye speken of such gentilesse

But I wol turn againe to Ariadne

But souls that of his own good life partake
By broad Potomac's silent shore
By Nebo's lonely mountain

Call in the messengers sent from the Dauphin
Call me no more

Calm and still light on yon great plain'
Captain or Colonel, or Knight in arms.
Child Dyring has ridden him up under öe
Clothed with state, and girt with might
Come away, come away, death
Come into the garden, Maud.

Come on, come on, and where you go

Come on, sir, here's the place: stand still
Come pitie us, all ye who see

Come seeling night.

Come, see the Dolphin's anchor forged
Come thou who art the wine and wit

Come to Licöo! the sun is riding

Come to the river's reedy shore
Comrades, leave me here a little
Consolers of the solitary hours

Dark fell the night, the watch was set
Dear lady, I a little fear.

Dear mother Ida, harken ere

I die

Dear my friend and fellow-student
Deep in the waves is a coral grove

Dinas Emlinn, lament, for the moment is nigh
Drink to me only with thine eyes

Each care-worn face is but a book
Ethereal minstrel! pilgrim of the sky
Ever a current of sadness deep

Faintly as tolls the evening chime

Faire Daffodills, we weep to see
Fair pledges of a fruitful tree

Fare thee well! and if forever

Farewell, ye lofty spires

Get up, get up for shame, the blooming morn
Give me a spirit that on life's rough sea.
Give me my cup, but from the Thespian well
Give me my scallop's shell of quiet

Give place, ye ladies, and begone.

God moves in a mysterious way.

God of science and of light

Goe, happy rose, and interwove
Goldilocks sat on the grass
Go, lovely rose

Go, soul, the body's guest

Grandmother's mother; her age I guess
Great God, greater than greatest.

Great Ocean! strongest of Creation's sons
Gude Lord Græme is to Carlisle gane.

Hail to the chief who in triumph advances
Happy, happier far than thou

Happy those early days when I

.

Hark, hark! the lark at heaven's gate sings
Hark, how I'll bribe you

Hath this world without me wrought?

Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss-shay?
Hearken in your ear

He clasps the crag with hooked hands

He is gone is dust

He is gone on the mountains

He leaves the earth, and says enough

Hence, all you vain delights!

Hence, loathed melancholy!

Hence, vain deluding joys!

Here is the place; right over the hill

Here let us live, and spend away our lives
Here might I pause and bend in reverence
Her eyes the glow-worme lend thee

Her fingers shame the ivory keys

Her finger was so small the ring

Her house is all of echo made

He's a rare man

He's gane! he's gane! he's frae us torn

He that loves a rosy cheek

[blocks in formation]

He works in rings, in magic rings of chance

Hope smiled when your nativity was cast

How changed is here each place man makes or fills!

How fresh, O Lord, how sweet and clean!
How happy is he born and taught

How many a time have I

WOTTON

How many thousand of my poorest subjects
How near to good is what is fair!

How oft when thou my music, music play'st
How pleasant were the songs of Toobonai!
How seldom, friends, a good great man inherits
How sleep the brave who sink to rest

How soon hath time, the subtle thief of youth.
How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank!

How they go by, those strange and dreamlike men!
How vainly men themselves amaze!

How young and fresh am I to-night!

I am holy while I stand

I called on dreams and visions to disclose

I came to a laund of white and green.
