FIRST LINES OF VERSE

Love bade me welcome; yet my soul drew back
Love is the blossom where there blows

Magdalen at Michael's gate

Many are the sayings of the wise
Martial, the things that do attain
Mary mother, well thou be!
Mortals that would follow me

My beloved spake and said unto me
My blood so red

My little son, who look'd from thoughtful eyes
My soul, there is a country

My true love hath my heart, and I have his

Never weather-beaten sail more willing bent to shore
No coward soul is mine

No thyng ys to man so dere

Nous n'irons plus aux bois

Now you will not swell the rout

O ancient streams, O far-descended woods

O gather me the rose, the rose

O Lady! we receive but what we give .

O lyric love, half angel and half bird

O Mary, at thy window be

O mortal folk, you may behold and see

O that we now had here

Of the million or two, more or less

Oh, the wild joys of living! the leaping from rock up

to rock

On the beach, at night

Out of the night that covers me

Praise is devotion fit for mighty minds

Praise ye the Lord

Say not, the struggle naught availeth

See the Chariot at hand here of Love

Sense with keenest edge unusèd

Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm

Simon the high priest, the son of Onias

Since I noo mwore do zee your feäce

Sleep, sleep, beauty bright

Strew on her roses, roses

Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright!

FIRST LINES OF VERSE

Tary no longer; toward thyn heritage
The beauty of heaven, the glory of the stars
The earth may open, and the sea o'erwhelm
The chief use then in man of that he knows
The cold grey hills they bind me around
The days are sad, it is the Holy tide
The fierce exulting worlds, the motes in rays
The goodly gate swung oft with many gods.
The man of life upright

The moth's kiss, first! .

The night is come, like to the day

The seas are quiet when the winds give o'er
The wine of Love is music

There's heaven above, and night by night

These beauteous forms

Thy restless feet now cannot go

There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream

They are all gone into the world of light

They told me, Heraclitus, they told me you were dead
This day dame Nature seem'd in love
This ring, so worn as you behold

Thy soul within such silent pomp did keep
To one full sound and quietly

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow

When love meets love, breast urged to breast

When the voices of children are heard on the green

Ye blessed Creatures, I have heard the call
Ye learned sisters, which have oftentimes
