I hate that Andrew Jones; he'll breed, 153
I have a boy of five years old, 76

I heard (alas! 'twas only in a dream), 576
I heard a thousand blended notes, 83

I know an aged Man constrained to dwell, 792
I listen-but no faculty of mine, 587
Imagination-ne'er before content, 549

I marvel how Nature could ever find space, 154
I met Louisa in the shade, 220

Immured in Bothwell's towers, at times the Brave,
698

In Brugès town is many a street, 668

In days of yore how fortunately fared, 428
In desultory walk through orchard grounds, 772
In distant countries have I been, 87
In due observance of an ancient rite, 391
Inland, within a hollow vale, I stood, 181
Inmate of a mountain-dwelling, 561

In my mind's eye a Temple, like a cloud, 657
In one of those excursions (may they ne'er, 329
Intent on gathering wool from hedge and brake,
772

In these fair vales hath many a Tree, 688
In the sweet shire of Cardigan, 82
In this still place, remote from men, 191
In trellised shed with clustering roses gay, 366
Intrepid sons of Albion! not by you, 556
In youth from rock to rock I went, 184
I rose while yet the cattle, heat-opprest, 605
I saw a Mother's eye intensely bent, 635
I saw an aged Beggar in my walk, 95

I saw far off the dark top of a Pine, 753
I saw the figure of a lovely Maid, 629

Is Death, when evil against good has fought, 767
I shiver, Spirit fierce and bold, 188
Is it a reed that's shaken by the wind, 179
Is then no nook of English ground secure, 785
Is then the final page before me spread, 596
Is there a power that can sustain and cheer, 391
Is this, ye Gods, the Capitolian Hill, 753
I thought of Thee, my partner and my guide, 607
It is a beauteous evening, calm and free, 179
It is no Spirit who from Heaven hath flown, 187
It is not to be thought of that the Flood, 182
It is the first mild day of March, 84
I travelled among unknown men, 115
-It seems a day, 113

It was a beautiful and silent day, 306

It was a dreary morning when the wheels, 249
It was a moral end for which they fought, 389
It was an April morning: fresh and clear, 141
I've watched you now a full half-hour, 172
I wandered lonely as a cloud, 205

I was thy neighbour once, thou rugged Pile, 217
I watch, and long have watched, with calm regret,
576

I, who accompanied with faithful pace, 609

JESU! bless our slender Boat, 583

Jones! as from Calais southward you and I, 179
Just as those final words were penned, the sun
broke out in power, 777

KEEP for the young the impassioned smile, 607

LADY! a Pen (perhaps with thy regard, 736
Lady! I rifled a Parnassian Cave, 579
Lady! the songs of Spring were in the grove, 363
Lament! for Diocletian's fiery sword, 611

Lance, shield, and sword relinquished--at his
side, 614

Last night, without a voice, that Vision spake, 630
Let other bards of angels sing, 643
Let thy wheel-barrow alone, 119
Let us quit the leafy arbour, 565

Lie here, without a record of thy worth, 215
Life with yon Lambs, like day, is just begun, 764
Like a shipwrecked Sailor tost, 706

List, the winds of March are blowing, 707
List-'twas the Cuckoo.-O with what delight, 756
List, ye who pass by Lyulph's Tower, 726
Lo! in the burning west, the craggy nape, 595.
Lone Flower hemmed in with snows, and white
as they, 575

Long-favoured England! be not thou misled, 775
Long has the dew been dried on tree and lawn, 755
Long time have human ignorance and guilt, 320
Long time his pulse hath ceased to beat, 117
Lonsdale! it were unworthy of a Guest, 726
Look at the fate of summer flowers, 644
Look now on that Adventurer who hath paid, 390
Lord of the vale! astounding Flood, 536
Loud is the Vale! the Voice is up, 356
Loving she is, and tractable, though wild, 397
Lo! where she stands fixed in a saint-like trance,
776

Lo! where the Moon along the sky, 764
Lowther in thy majestic Pile are seen, 726
Lulled by the sound of pastoral bells, 594
Lyre! though such power do in thy magic live, 780

MAN'S life is like a Sparrow, mighty King, 613
Mark how the feathered tenants of the flood, 406
Mark the concentred hazels that enclose, 545
Meek Virgin Mother, more benign, 585

Men of the Western World! in Fate's dark book,
776

Men, who have ceased to reverence, soon defy,
628

Mercy and Love have met thee on thy road, 610
Methinks that I could trip o'er heaviest soil, 627
Methinks that to some vacant hermitage, 614
Methinks 'twere no unprecedented feat, 604
Methought I saw the footsteps of a throne, 356
'Mid crowded obelisks and urns, 190

Mid-noon is past ;-upon the sultry mead, 604
Milton! thou shouldst be living at this hour, 181
Mine ear has rung, my spirit sunk subdued, 638
Miserrimus! and neither name nor date, 674
Monastic Domes! following my downward way
637

Most sweet it is with unuplifted eyes, 728
Mother! whose virgin bosom was uncrost, 624
Motions and Means, on land and sea at war, 725
My frame hath often trembled with delight, 603
My heart leaps up when I behold, 171

NAY, Traveller! rest. This lonely Yew-tree
stands, 33

Near Anio's stream, I spied a gentle Dove, 755
Never enlivened with the liveliest ray, 789
Next morning Troilus began to clear, 165
No fiction was it of the antique age, 601
No more the end is sudden and abrupt, 700
No mortal object did these eyes behold, 355
No record tells of lance opposed to lance, 605
Nor scorn the aid which Fancy oft doth lend, 614
Nor shall the eternal roll of praise reject, 630
Nor wants the cause the panic-striking aid, 612

This Lawn, a carpet all alive, 673

This Spot-at once unfolding sight so fair, 767
Those breathing Tokens of your kind regard, 669
Those had given earliest notice, as the lark, 622
Those old credulities, to nature dear, 754
Those silver clouds collected round the sun, 576
Those words were uttered as in pensive mood, 353
Though I beheld at first with blank surprise, 771
Though joy attend Thee orient at the birth, 698
Though many suns have risen and set, 650
Though narrow be that old Man's cares, and near,

Though the torrents from their fountains, 151
Though to give timely warning and deter, 768
Thou look'st upon me, and dost fondly think, 712
Thou sacred Pile! whose turrets rise, 588

Threats come which no submission may assuage,

Three years she grew in sun and shower, 115
Through shattered galleries, 'mid roofless halls,

Thus all things lead to Charity, secured, 638
Thus far, O Friend! have we, though leaving

much, 243

Thus is the storm abated by the craft, 622
Thy functions are ethereal, 665

'Tis eight o'clock,-a clear March night, 88
'Tis gone with old belief and dream, 663
'Tis He whose yester-evening's high disdain, 765.

'Tis said, that some have died for love, 150
"Tis said that to the brow of yon fair hill, 674
'Tis spent-this burning day of June, 225

To barren heath, bleak moor, and quaking fen,

To kneeling Worshippers, no earthly floor, 636
Too frail to keep the lofty vow, 189

To public notice, with reluctance strong, 539
