Dear yesterday, glide not so fast; 155

Do you remember, father; 291

England, I stand on thy imperial ground; 273

Fair flower that dost so comely grow; 1

Farragut, Farragut; 110

From the Desert I come to thee; 85

“Give us a song!” the soldiers cried; 119

Green be the turf above thee; 36

Helen, thy beauty is to me; 31

Her hands are cold; her face is white; 124

Here is the place; right over the hill; 137

Her suffering ended with the day; 136

How dear to this heart are the scenes of my childhood; 8

I am a woman—­therefore I may not; 227

I fill this cup to one made up; 12

I have a little kinsman; 150

I knew she lay above me; 235

I lay me down to sleep; 122

I saw him once before; 95

I saw the twinkle of white feet; 64

I stand upon the summit of my years; 154

I waited in the little sunny room; 247

In a still room at hush of dawn; 298

In Heaven a spirit doth dwell; 21

In May, when sea-winds pierced our solitudes; 165

In the greenest of our valleys; 26

In the summer even; 202

It may be through some foreign grace; 140

It was many and many a year ago; 10

It was nothing but a rose I gave her; 196

It was the schooner Hesperus; 80

Just where the Treasury’s marble front; 188

Lear and Cordelia! ’twas an ancient tale; 78

Let me come in where you sit weeping,—­aye; 263

Let me move slowly through the street; 42

Lo!  Death has reared himself a throne; 15

Look off, dear Love, across the sallow sands; 215

Look out upon the stars, my love; 14

Men say the sullen instrument; 158

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; 108

My books I’d fain cast off, I cannot read; 172

My heart, I cannot still it; 192

My life closed twice before its close; 252

My life is like the summer rose; 4

My mind lets go a thousand things; 241

Nightingales warble about it; 290

No matter how the chances are; 275

Not a hand has lifted the latchet; 236

Not a kiss in life; but one kiss, at life’s end; 209

Not as all other women are; 142

Now at last I am at home; 260

O Death, when thou shalt come to me; 233
