The angel of the flowers, one day. 190 The merry brown hares came leaping 330 280 411 ... The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold. 501 The mistletoe hung in the castle hall. The Autumn time is with us... The baby sits in her cradle. The baby wept... The bard has sung, God never formed a soul ... The bubbling brook doth leap when I come by..... 403 464 The might of one fair face sublimes my love... 135 891 433 The moon it shines.. 78 434 The more we live, more brief appear.... 741 188 282 The moving accident is not my trade......... 661 587 906 212 389 Then hear me, bounteous Heaven!... 824 Then took the generous host... 239 464 The sun that brief December day.. .. 414 The summer sun is falling soft......... The summer sun was sinking. The sun comes up and the sun goes down.. The sun has gane down o'er the lofty Ben Lomond. 148 .... 522 'Tis morning: and the sun with ruddy orb. The tattoo beats; the lights are gone... The weather leach of the topsail shivers.. 825 'Tis the middle watch of a summer's night.. 880 Thy braes were bonny, Yarrow stream. 288 935 552 Tiger! tiger! burning bright.. 468 "Tis a dozen or so of years ago.... .1005 435 730 415 430 610 166 465 840 250 213 The word of the Lord by night.. The world goes up and the world goes down. The world's a bubble, and the life of man......... Unfading Hope! when life's last embers burn.............. 743 | When descends on the Atlantic....... Up from the meadows rich with corn.. Upon ane stormy Sunday. Upon a rock yet uncreate.. 85 When chapman billies leave the street.. 847 429 When Eve brought woe... 975 When first thou camest, gentle, shy, and fond. 991 When Freedom, from her mountain height. When God at first made man.... 83 592 778 461 Welcome, welcome, do I sing. We live in deeds, not years.. We meet 'neath the sounding rafter.. We parted in silence, we parted by night. We the fairies blithe and antic. 116 When Summer o'er her native hills.. 427 When that my mood is sad and in the noise......... We knew it would rain, for all the morn. 126 When the British warrior queen. 898 When the hours of day are numbered.. 247 448 572 273 ... ... We were crowded in the cabin.. We were not many,-we who stood.. We wreathed about our darling's head....... 167 Whether with reason or with instinct blest... 781 451 ... 599 Which I wish to remark, and my language is plain. 987 80 Which shall it be? which shall it be?... 230 ANALYTICAL INDEX OF FAMOUS AND APT POETICAL QUOTATIONS.
