Saint Augustine! well hast thou said 33
She sat on the sliding cushion 29
She's up there--Old Glory--where lightnings are sped 21
She was a Phantom of delight 89
Silent he watched them--the soldiers and dog 122
Sleepy little, creepy little goblins in the gloaming 205
Slow the Kansas sun was setting 37
Some die too late and some too soon 84
Sometimes w'en I am playin' with some fellers 'at I knows 127
Somewhere, out on the blue sea sailing 138
South mountain towered upon our right, far off the river lay 176
Stand! the ground's your own, my braves! 99
Sweet is the voice that called 75
Talking of sects quite late one eve 180
The autumn is old 186
The bells of Mount Vernon are ringing to-day 58
The boy stood on the burning deck 164
The bravest battle that ever was fought 64
The children kept coming one by one 146
The coppenter man said a wicked word 139
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary 28
The district school-master was sitting behind his great book-laden
desk 68
The feast is o'er! Now brimming wine 57
The gate was thrown open, I rode out alone 120
The gret big church wuz crowded full uv broadcloath an' of silk 149
The harp that once through Tara's halls 71
The joys of living wreathe my face 208
The melancholy days are come, the saddest of the year 21
The Minstrel-Boy to the war is gone 55
The muffled drum's sad roll has beat 15
The night was dark when Sam set out 76
The old mayor climbed the belfry tower 150
There are two kinds of people on earth to-day 116
There fell an April shower, one night 26
There lay upon the ocean's shore 150
There's a dandy little fellow 82
There was a Boy; you knew him well, ye cliffs 90
There was a sound of revelry by night 17
There were ninety and nine 166
The rich man's son inherits lands 22
The rosy clouds float overhead 62
These are the things I hold divine 64
The shades of night were falling fast 15
The snow and the silence came down together 83
The sunlight shone on walls of stone 134
The sun's heat will give out in ten million years more 203
The sweetest lives are those to duty wed 20
The warrior bowed his crested head, and tamed his heart of fire 160
The weaver at this loom is sitting 171
They grew in beauty, side by side 130
They said, "The Master is coming" 30
This is the land where hate should die 18
Tho' yer lamp o' life is burnin' with a clear and steady light 199
Three little words you often see 201
'Tis a cold, bleak night! with angry roar 77
'Tis a lesson you should heed 135
'Tis gone at last, and I am glad; it stayed a fearful while 173
'Tis only a half truth the poet has sung 28
"To-whit! to-whit! to-whee!" 41
Turn back the leaves of history. On yon Pacific shore 183
'Twas a stylish congregation, that of Theophrastus Brown 18
'Twas on Lake Erie's broad expanse 78
'Twas the eve before Christmas; "Good-night" had been said 196
Two angels, one of Life and one of Death 187
Two little stockings hung side by side 141
Want any papers, Mister? 94
We all look on with anxious eyes 40
We are two travellers, Roger and I 49
Well, wife, I found the _model_ church! I worshipped there to-day 148
W'en you see a man in woe 123
We squander health in search of wealth 103
We were crowded in the cabin 56
We were not many,--we who stood 165
"What fairings will ye that I bring?" 92
What flower is this that greets the morn 85
What makes the dog's nose always cold? 144
Whence come those shrieks so wild and shrill 12
Whene'er a noble deed is wrought 56
Whenever I walk to Suffern along the Erie track 8
When I compare 34
When Mary Ann Dollinger got the skule daown thar on Injun Bay 67
When papa was a little boy you really couldn't find 100
When the humid showers gather over all the starry spheres 97
When the lessons and tasks are all ended 133
When the Norn Mother saw the Whirlwind Hour 118
Whichever way the wind doth blow 67
"Which shall it be? which shall it be?" 101
Who comes dancing over the snow 153
Who dat knockin' at de do'? 71
Why dost thou wildly rush and roar 100
Why, yes, dear, we can put it by. It does seem out of place 186
With sable-draped banners and slow measured tread 140
Work! Thank God for the might of it 154
Work thou for pleasure; paint or sing or carve 169
Ye banks, and braes, and streams around 88
Ye say that all have passed away--that noble race and brave 135
Yes, it's a quiet station, but it suits me well enough 109
You bad leetle boy, not moche you care 80
You may talk o' gin an' beer 98
You're going to leave the homestead, John 159
Your letter, lady, came too late 136
You sail and you seek for the Fortunate Isles 168
You say I have asked for the costliest thing 155
