Стр. 107 - Heigh ho ! daisies and buttercups, Fair yellow daffodils, stately and tall — A sunshiny world full of laughter and leisure, And fresh hearts unconscious of sorrow and thrall ! Send down on their pleasure smiles passing its measure, God that is over us all ! SEVEN TIMES FIVE. WIDOWHOOD. I sleep and rest, my heart makes moan Before I am well awake ; " Let me bleed ! O let me alone, Since I must not break...
Стр. 146 - If the loved form and the deep-cherish'd feature Must, when unseen, from the soul fade away — Me let no half-effaced memories cumber! Fled, fled at once, be all vestige of thee ! Deep be the darkness and still be the slumber — Dead be the past and its phantoms to me ! Then, when we meet, and thy look strays toward me, Scanning my face and the changes wrought there : Who, let me say, is this stranger regards me, With the grey eyes, and the lovely brown hair?
Стр. 255 - No, indeed, for God above Is great to grant, as mighty to make ; And creates the love to reward the love : I claim you still, for my own love's sake...
Стр. 226 - I am in love, meantime, you think; no doubt you would think so. I am in love, you say; with those letters, of course, you would say so. I am in love, you declare. I think not so; yet I grant you It is a pleasure indeed to converse with this girl. Oh, rare gift, Rare felicity, this! she can talk in a...
Стр. 135 - SING HEIGH-HO! THERE sits a bird on every tree ; * Sing heigh-ho ! There sits a bird on every tree, And courts his love, as I do thee ; Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho ! Young maids must marry. There grows a flower on every bough ; Sing heigh-ho! There grows a flower on every bough, Its petals kiss — I'll show you how : Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho ! Young maids must marry.
Стр. 206 - You owe this strange intelligence, or why Upon this blasted heath you stop our way With such prophetic greeting. Speak, I charge you. WITCHES vanish. BAN. The earth hath bubbles, as the water has, And these are of them.
Стр. 273 - A LITTLE WHILE. A LITTLE while a little love The hour yet bears for thee and me Who have not drawn the veil to see If still our heaven be lit above. Thou merely, at the day's last sigh, Hast felt thy soul prolong the tone ; And I have heard the night-wind cry And deemed its speech mine own.
Стр. 161 - Strong and free, strong and free; The floodgates are open, away to the sea. Free and strong, free and strong, Cleansing my streams as I hurry along To the golden sands and the leaping bar, And the taintless tide that awaits me afar, As I lose myself in the infinite main, Like a soul that has sinned and is pardoned again.
Стр. 52 - A cup for love!" how low, How soft the words; and all the while Her blush was rippling with a smile Like summer after snow. "A cup for memory!" Cold cup that one must drain alone: While autumn winds are up and moan Across the barren sea. Hope, memory, love: Hope for fair morn, and love for day, And memory for the evening gray And solitary dove.
