AS I GIRD ON FOR FIGHTING
BECAUSE I LIKED YOU BETTER
COULD MAN BE DRUNK FOR EVER
CROSSING ALONE THE NIGHTED FERRY
OH STAY AT HOME, MY LAD, AND PLOUGH
OH WHO IS THAT YOUNG SINNER WITH HANDCUFFS ON HIS WRIST
SOLDIER FROM THE WARS RETURNING
STARS, I HAVE SEEN THEM FALL
TELL ME NOT HERE, IT NEEDS NOT SAYING
THE LAWS OF GOD, THE LAWS OF MAN
THE RAIN, IT STREAMS ON STONE AND HILLOCK
THEY SAY MY VERSE IS SAD: NO WONDER

AN EPITAPH

EIGHT O'CLOCK
EPITAPH ON AN ARMY OF MERCENARIES
EPITHALAMIUM
FOR MY FUNERAL
GRENADIER
INFANT INNOCENCE
LANCER
THE ORACLES
THE SHADES OF NIGHT
WHEN FIRST MY WAY
AS I GIRD ON FOR FIGHTING
COULD MAN BE DRUNK FOR EVER
HER STRONG ATTACHMENTS FAILING
HOW CLEAR, HOW LOVELY BRIGHT
I TO MY PERILS
IN MIDNIGHTS OF NOVEMBER
IN THE MORNING, IN THE MORNING
IN VALLEYS GREEN AND STILL
NOW DREARY DAWNS THE EASTERN LIGHT
O CUCKOO, SHALL I CALL THEE BIRD
OH STAY AT HOME, MY LAD, AND PLOUGH
SOLDIER FROM THE WARS RETURNING
TELL ME NOT HERE, IT NEEDS NOT SAYING
THE CHESTNUT CASTS HIS FLAMBEAUX, AND THE FLOWERS
THE FAIRIES BREAK THEIR DANCES
THE HALF-MOON WESTERS LOW, MY LOVE
THE LAWS OF GOD, THE LAWS OF MAN
THE NIGHT IS FREEZING FAST
THE RAIN, IT STREAMS ON STONE AND HILLOCK
THE SIGH THAT HEAVES THE GRASSES
THE SLOE WAS LOST IN FLOWER
THEY SAY MY VERSE IS SAD: NO WONDER
WAKE NOT FOR THE WORLD-HEARD THUNDER
WE'LL TO THE WOODS NO MORE
WHEN I WOULD MUSE IN BOYHOOD
WHEN SUMMER'S END IS NIGHING
WHEN THE EYE OF DAY IS SHUT
YONDER SEE THE MORNING BLINK
OH, SEE HOW THICK!'

FANCY'S KNELL
HELL GATE
ILLIC JACET
JACK AND JILL
REVOLUTION
SINNER'S RUE
SPRING MORNING
THE CULPRIT
THE DESERTER
THE FIRST OF MAY
THE WEST
TIS FIVE YEARS SINCE, 'AN END,' SAID I
AMELIA MIXED THE MUSTARD
AS INTO THE GARDEN ELIZABETH RAN
ASK ME NO MORE, FOR FEAR I SHOULD REPLY
AWAY WITH BLOODSHED, I LOVE NOT SUCH
BECAUSE I LIKED YOU BETTER
BELLS IN TOWER AT EVENING TOLL
BY SHORES AND WOODS AND STEEPLES
CROSSING ALONE THE NIGHTED FERRY
DELIGHT IT IS IN YOUTH AND MAY
FAR KNOWN TO SEA AND SHORE
FAREWELL TO A NAME AND A NUMBER
FOR THESE OF OLD THE TRADER
FROM THE WASH THE LAUNDRESS SENDS
GIVE ME A LAND OF BOUGHS IN LEAF
GOOD CREATURES, DO YOU LOVE YOUR LIVES
HALF-WAY, FOR ONE COMMANDMENT BROKEN
HE LOOKED AT ME WITH EYES I THOUGHT
HE WOULD NOT STAY FOR ME; AND WHO CAN WONDER?
HE, STANDING HUSHED, A PACE OR TWO APART
HERE ARE THE SKIES, THE PLANETS SEVEN
HO, EVERYONE THAT THIRSTETH
I DID NOT LOSE MY HEART IN SUMMER'S EVEN
I LAY ME DOWN AND SLUMBER
I PROMISE NOTHING: FRIENDS WILL PART
I SHALL NOT DIE FOR YOU
I WAKE FROM DREAMS AND TURNING
IT IS NO GIFT I TENDER
LIKE MINE, THE VEINS OF THESE THAT SLUMBER
MY DREAMS ARE OF A FIELD AFAR
NOW TO HER LAP THE INCESTUOUS EARTH
OH TURN NOT IN FROM MARCHING
OH WERE HE AND I TOGETHER
OH WHO IS THAT YOUNG SINNER WITH HANDCUFFS ON HIS WRIST
OH, IS IT THE JAR OF NATIONS
OH, ON MY BREAST IN DAYS HEREAFTER
ON FORELANDS HIGH IN HEAVEN
SHAKE HANDS, WE SHALL NEVER BE FRIENDS, ALL'S OVER
SMOOTH BETWEEN SEA AND LAND
SOME CAN GAZE AND NOT BE SICK
STARS, I HAVE SEEN THEM FALL
STONE, STEEL, DOMINIONS PASS
TARRY, DELIGHT, SO SELDOM MET
FARMS OF HOME LIE LOST IN EVEN
MILL-STREAM, NOW THAT NOISES CEASE
RAINY PLEIADS WESTER
STARS HAVE NOT DEALT ME THE WORST THEY COULD DO
WEEPING PLEIADS WESTER
WORLD GOES NONE THE LAMER
THERE IS HALLELUJAH HANNAH
THEY SAY MY VERSE IS SAD: NO WONDER, FR. MORE POEMS
TO STAND UP STRAIGHT AND TREAD THE TURNING MILL
WHEN ADAM WALKED IN EDEN YOUNG
WHEN GREEN BUDS HANG IN THE ELM LIKE DUST
WHEN ISRAEL OUT OF EGYPT CAME
WHEN THE BELLS JUSTLE IN THE TOWER
WITH SEED THE SOWERS SCATTER
YON FLAKES THAT FRET THE EASTERN SKY
YOU EAT YOUR VICTUALS FAST ENOUGH
YOUNG IS THE BLOOD THAT YONDER
TOMAN OF THE SOIL
