SOME men strut proudly, all purple and gold,
Hiding queer deeds 'neath a cloak of good fame;
...
IN the June twilight, in the soft gray twilight,
The yellow sun-glow trembling through the rainy eve,
...
THERE was a house, a house of clay,
Wherein the inmate sat all day,
Merry and poor;
For Hope sat with her, heart to heart,
...
THEY have toiled all the night, the long weary night,
They have toiled all the night, Lord, and taken nothing:--
...
IN face of a great sorrow like to death
How do we wrestle night and day with tears;
How do we fast and pray; how small appears
...
STREAM of my life, dull, placid river, flow!
I have no fear of the ingulfing seas:
Neither I look before me nor behind,
...
LEONORA, Leonora,
How the word rolls--Leonora--
Lion-like, in full-mouthed sound,
...
LITTLE white clouds, why are you flying
Over the sky so blue and cold?
Fair faint hopes, why are you lying
...
YOU are to be married, Mary;
This hour as I wakeful lie
In the dreamy dawn of the morning,
...
SOFT of voice and light of hand
As the fairest in the land--
Who can rightly understand
My love Annie?
...
