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
The sun is warm, the sky is clear.
The sunlight fills the trembling air.
The sunlight glitters keen and bright..

The thoughts are strange that crowd into my brain 449
The time hath laid his mantle by.

The tree of deepest root is found..
The twilight hours, like birds, flew by.
The wanton troopers, riding by..........
The waters purled, the waters swelled........
The weary night is o'er at last..

The weather leach of the topsail shivers..
The wind blew wide the casement............
The wind it blew, and the ship it flew...
The winds transferred into the friendly sky.
The winter being over..

The word of the Lord by night..

The world goes up and the world goes down.
The world is too much with us..
The world is very evil...

The world's a bubble, and the life of man.........
The Yankee boy before he's sent to school.
They are all gone into the world of light.......
They are dying! they are dying!.
They come ! the merry summer months..
They course the glass, and let it take no rest..
The year stood at its equinox.............
They'll talk of him for years to come........
They told me I was heir: I turned in haste...
They tell me I am shrewd with other men.
They've got a bran new organ, Sue...
Think not I love him, though I ask for him..........
This figure, that thou here see'st put....
This book is all that's left me now..
This is the forest primeval..

Untremulous in the river clear..

Up from the South at break of day.

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 pledged our hearts, my love and I............
Were I as base as is the lowly plain...
Werther had a love for Charlotte...
We sat by the fisher's cottage..
We scatter seeds with careless hand..
We see not, know not; all our way.
We stood upon the ragged rocks...

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.
We know not what it is, dear, this sleep so deep.... 297 | When the black-lettered list to the gods was pre-
Welcome, maids of honor!..

126 When the British warrior queen.

898 When the hours of day are numbered..

We were not many,-we who stood..

We wreathed about our darling's head.......

What change has made the pastures sweet.
What constitutes a state ?.

ANALYTICAL

INDEX

OF FAMOUS AND APT POETICAL QUOTATIONS.

The Poetical Quotations referred to in this Index will be found-as indicated by the page-number following the line or phrase indexed-either in the body of some poem, or as a brief or "fragment" in its appropriate Division. The key-words, under which these are indexed, will ordinarily be the nouns of the quotation, although there is many a "bold expressive phrase," the essential peculiarities of which are indexed, whatever they may be. Take two familiar instances, the key-words being here italicized:

“Truth crushed to earth shall rise again"

is found in WM. CULLEN BRYANT's poem entitled "The Battle-Field,” on page 534; while

"Sighed and looked unutterable things"

on page 204 is found to be a fragment from "The Seasons: Summer," by JAMES THOMSON. Thus the reader may ascertain the position in this volume, the original source or poem, the name of the author, and the correct reading of the thousands of poetical quotations given in the book.
