INDEX OF FIRST LINES

A drop, one drop, how sweetly one fair drop

A good sword and a trusty hand!

A Ward, and still in bonds, one day

4I

134

Aske me no more where Jove bestowes

And did those feet in ancient time

As I in hoarie Winters night stood shiuering in the snowe

Ask not the Cause, why sullen Spring

At the midnight in the silence of the sleep-time
Avenge O Lord thy slaughter'd Saints, whose bones

82

37

Beneath these fruit-tree boughs that shed
By the blue Tapers trembling Light

68

143

Call for the Robin-Red-Brest and the Wren

26

Come liue with mee and be my loue
Come vnto these yellow sands

Death! that struck when I was most confiding
Death stands above me, whispering low
Drinke to me, onely with thine eyes

Dull soul aspire

Earth has not anything to show more fair

Faire stood the Wind for France
Faith is the wedding garment, lind within
Father of all! in ev'ry age

Fear death? - to feel the fog in my throat
Feare no more the heate o' th' Sun

Follow your saint, follow with accents sweet
Fvll many a glorious morning haue I seene

Glide soft ye siluer Floods

Go, for they call you, Shepherd, from the hill
Go, lovely Rose

Go, spend your penny, Beauty, when you will
God moves in a mysterious way

Had she come all the way for this
Had we but World enough, and Time
Hark! she is call'd, the parting houre is come
Haste my Nannette, my lovely maid
Hence, hairt, with hir that most depairte

Hence, vain deluding joyes

Here lies a piece of Christ, a Star in Dust

39

Here lyes the fairest Flowre, that stood

Here was old Rome that stretch'd her Empire far
How soon hath Time the suttle theef of youth
How vainly men themselves amaze

29

53

How weak a Star doth rule Mankind

I die with too transporting Joy

I know a little garden close

I strove with none, for none was worth my strife

I that in heill wes and glaidnes

I wandered lonely as a cloud
