It lies around us like a cloud.
It stands in a sunny meadow
It was a friar of orders gray ..
It was the winter wild....

INDEX OF FIRST LINES.

I've heard them lilting at our ewe-milking
I've wandered east, I've wandered west ..
I wandered by the brookside

I wandered lonely as a cloud

I was thy neighbor once, thou rugged pile!
I worship thee, sweet Will of God!....... 239
I would be ready, Lord

.....

I would have gone; God bade me stay....
I would not live alway: I ask not to stay.

....

Laid in my quiet bed..................

......

Late to our town there came a maid
Launch thy bark, mariner!.......
Lest men suspect your tale untrue...
Let me not to the marriage of true minds..
Let Taylor preach, upon a morning breezy
Let us go, lassie, go.....

Life! I know not what thou art.

Life may be given in many ways.

Like some vision olden.

Like to the falling of a star...

Listen, my children, and you shall hear.
Little thinks, in the field, you red-cloaked

clown

Lo, here is God, and there is God!....................
Long years ago I wandered here
Lo! o'er the earth the kindling spirits pour
Looking seaward, o'er the sand-hills stands
the fortress, old and quaint
Lord call thy pallid angel...
Lord, it belongs not to my care.
Love divine, all other love excelling..
Love, when all these years are silent, van-
ished quite and laid to rest......

Jesus, lover of my soul.

278

John Davidson and Tib his wife
Judge not; the workings of his brain
Just for a handful of silver he left us...... 207
Just where the Treasury's marble front...

283

Maiden with the meek, brown eyes......
Make me no vows of constancy, dear friend
Methinks it is good to be here...
Mid pleasures and palaces though we may

roam......

345

248 No stir in the air, no stir in the sea........ 117
290 Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note. 152
No! Time, thou shalt not boast that I do
change.

67

35

Not in the world of light alone.
Not often to the parting soul

Midwinter comes to-morrow
Mild offspring of a dark and sullen sire!...
Mine be a cot beside the hill..

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming

of the Lord....

Not yet, the flowers are in my path..

Mont Blane is the monarch of mountains.. 126
More than the soul of ancient song is given. 263.
My child is lying on my knees.
My days among the dead are passed
My dear and only love, I pray.

My hawk is tired of perch and hood
My life is like the summer rose
My mind to me a kingdom is

My sins and follies, Lord! by thee...
Mysterious night! when our first parent
knew

O Artist, range not over-wide.

O, ask not, hope thou not, too much.
O blithe new-comer! I have heard...
O blushing flowers of Krumley!

O fair and stately maid, whose eyes.

Of a' the airts the wind can blaw

O Land, of every land the best..
O lassie ayont the hill!..

Old Tubal Cain was a man of might.
200 O Love Divine, of all that is
242 | O lull me, lull me, charming air.
335 | O Mary, at thy window be !

90 | O Mary, go and call the cattle home...
O may I join the choir invisible.
Once, in the flight of ages past.

Once this soft turf, this rivulet's sands.... 189
One day, nigh weary of the irksome way.
One day to Helbeck I had strolled
One sweetly welcome thought
One word is too often profaned..
On thy fair bosom, silver lake.

Queen, and huntress, chaste and fair......
Quiet from God! It cometh not to still..

Remember us poor Mayers all!
Ring, sing! ring, sing! pleasant Sabbath
bells!...

Saith the white owl to the martin folk....
See, from this counterfeit of him...
Send down thy winged angel, God!
Serene, I fold my hands and wait..
Shall I tell you whom I love?.
She doth tell me where to borrow..
"She is dead!" they said to him. "Come
away"

Sweet-voiced Hope, thy fine discourse
Sweet was the sound, when oft, at even-

Sweet wind, fair wind, where have you

She's gane to dwall in heaven, my lassie.. 145
She smiles and smiles, and will not sigh... 266
She stood alone amidst the April fields.... 291
She stood breast high amid the corn ...... 161
She stood in the harvest-field at noon..... 271
She walks in beauty, like the night
She was a phantom of delight.
She wearies with an ill unknown.
Silent nymph, with curious eye!..
Sitting all day in a silver mist
Slave of the dark and dirty mine!.
Slayer of winter, art thou here again?.
Sleep on, my love, in thy cold bed
Sleep, sleep to-day, tormenting cares
Slowly, by God's hand unfurled...
Snow was glistening on the mountains, but
the air was that of June....
So sweet, so sweet the roses in their blow-
ing
Spring, with that nameless pathos in the
air

The night was made for cooling shade..... 287

Tell me not, in mournful numbers
Tell me not, sweet, I am unkind....
Ten years! and to my waking eye...
That house's form within was rude and

That time of year thou mayst in me be-

St. Agnes' Eve,-ah, bitter chill it was!.. 129
Steer hither, steer your wingéd pines......
Stern daughter of the voice of God! ......
Still sits the school-house by the road....
Still to be neat, still to be drest....
Strike the loved harp; let the prelude be.. 339 The rich man's son inherits lands.
Success had made him more than king..
The salt wind blows upon my cheek.
Sure, to the mansions of the blest
The sea is calling, calling,
Sweet Day, so cool, so calin, so bright
Sweetest of all childlike dreams
Sweet is the scene when virtue dies!......
Sweet-scented flower! who 'rt wont to
bloom.

The curtains were half drawn, the floor
was swept

Ere I sink to sleep.... 208
The day is ended.
The day was dark, save when the beam... 142
The fairest action of our human life ...... 13
The frugal snail, with forecast of repose..
The glories of our blood and state..
The golden sea its mirror spreads.
The gowan glitters on the sward..
The grass hung wet on Rydal banks.
The island lies nine leagues away

The Lord my pasture shall prepare
The melancholy days are come, the saddest

These withered hands are weak.

The shadows lay along Broadway
The sky is thick upon the sea.

The sparrow sits and sings, and sings.

The sun is warm, the sky is clear.

The thoughts are strange that crowd into
my brain......

The tree of deepest root is found..

The western waves of ebbing day.
The wild November comes at last..
The wind ahead, the billows high.

The wind was whispering to the vines..... 305

Thine eyes still shone for me, though far..
Think me not unkind and rude..
This is the ship of pearl, which, poets fain
This morning, timely rapt with holy fire...
This only grant me, that my means may lie
Thou art, O God! the life and light.......
Thou blossom bright with autumn dew...
Thou Grace Divine, encircling all..
Thought is deeper than all speech
Thou hast sworn by thy God, my Jeanie.. 145
Thou lingering star, with lessening ray....
Thou singest by the gleaming isles.......
Thou, who didst stoop below.

What is it fades and flickers in the fire.... 275

When I consider how my light is spent
When I have said my quiet say....

When in disgrace with fortune and men's

eyes....

When Israel, of the Lord beloved
When love with unconfined wings
When maidens such as Hester die
When marshalled on the nightly plain..

93

When on my ear your loss was knelled.... 229
When the grass shall cover me...

273

When the sheep are in the fauld, and the
kye come hane..

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
Where does Circumstance end, and Provi-
dence, where begins it?

Where honor or where conscience does not
bind..

Where the bee sucks, there lurk I....
Where the Great Lake's sunn smiles
Where the remote Bermudas ride
Whether on Ida's shady brow....
While sauntering through the crowded
street...

Whilst Thee I seek, protecting Power..
Whither, midst falling dew
Whoe'er she be...

Who knoweth life but questions death....
Why should I, with a mournful, morbid
spleen...

Why thus longing, thus forever sighing..
With blackest moss the flower-plots..
With deep affection

With fingers weary and worn

With how sad steps, O Moon! thou climb'st
the skies

Within his sober realm o. leafless trees.... 279
Within the sunlit forest

Wouldst thou hear what man can say...... 19
