THE CORAL GROVE

A TULIP BLOSSOMED, ONE MORNING IN MAY

COME ON YOUR SKY-BLUE WINGS, YE PAPHIAN DOVES

FLOWER OF A SOUTHERN GARDEN

HERE THE AIR IS SWEET

HERE'S TO HER WHO WORE

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS NIGHT!

MAN IS BORN TO DIE

MY HEART TOO FIRMLY TRUSTED, FONDLY GAVE

MY HEART WAS A MIRROR, THAT SHOWED EVERY TREASURE

O, NOW'S THE HOUR, WHEN AIR IS SWEET

O, THERE IS A BLISS IN TEARS! - IN TEARS THAT FLOW

O, WILT THOU GO WITH ME LOVE

OFTEN, WHEN AT NIGHT DELAYING

ONCE, ON A CLOUDLESS SUMMER-DAY

ROSE OF MY HEART

SILENT SHE STOOD BEFORE ME, IN THE LIGHT

STAR OF THE PENSIVE! MELANCHOLY STAR

A PICTURE: VALLEY OF CATSKILL RIVER NORTH OF THE CATSKILL MOUNTAINS

A PLATONIC BACCHANAL SONG

A TRIBUTE TO THE BRAVE

WRITTEN ON HEARING A LADY SING IN TOWER OF MONTEVIDEO, NEAR HARTFORD

TIS MORNING, AND ALL IS GAY

TIS NIGHT, - BUT YET THE MOON IS HIGH

ADIEU! FAIR FLOWER, THOUGH FRAIL

ADIEU, MY LOVE, MY MARY DEAR

ALL LIVE AND MOVE TO THE POETIC EYE

ARABIA MAY BOAST OF ITS COFFEE-CLAD MOUNTAINS

BALMY JUICE OF RICH MADEIRA

BENEATH THE PENSIVE WILLOW'S SHADE

BIRD OF THE MOUNTAIN

BY THE SPIRITS OF THE DEAD

CAN I TOUCH MY HARP AGAIN

COME FROM THY HOME IN THE FAR BLUE SKY

COME TO MY HEART, THOU STRICKEN DEER

COME, COME AWAY, UNTO THE SILENT GROVE

DAY-STAR OF LIBERTY! DAWN ON OUR SKY

DEAR LITTLE ANGEL OF MY HEART

DEAR MOMENTS OF CHILDHOOD! HOW SWEETLY YE SMILE

DOVE OF MY HEART! I'VE BUILT A NEST

EMPRESS OF NIGHT! I SAW THEE THROUGH THE RACK

FAIR BREAKS THE MORNING ON MY EYE

FAIREST NYMPH OF LOVELY FLORA

FAREWELL! 'TIS NOW THE HOUR OF SOFT REPOSE

GIVE ME A LONELY SEAT

GIVE ME THE LYRE OF HARMONY

GIVE THE WARRIOR CHIEF HIS DUE

HAD I THE PINIONS OF AN EAGLE'S WING

HAIL TO THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE BOLD

HAPPY OLD MAN! HERE, 'MID YOUR WEEL-KNOWN STREAMS

HARD IS THE POET'S FATE, - BUT MORE SEVERE

HE HAD A TWOFOLD NATURE, AND THE ONE

HE SPAKE, AND, SPRINGING FROM TH' EMBATTLED GROUND

HIGH THEY RAISED THE MAST

HOW HAPPY IS THE PURE, GOOD MAN

HOW HUSHED THE WINDS! HOW CALM THE AIR!

HOW SWEET IS THE TURF ON THE GRAVE OF MY FRIEND

I FOUND THEE ON AN APPLE-TREE

I LOOKED ON THE BROAD SETTING SUN

I LOVE THE RUDDY CHEEK, THAT GLOWS

I SAW A FLOWER OF SOFTEST HUE

I SAW THE SUN, AT THE DAWNING OF THE DAY

I SAW UPON A MOUNTAIN

I THOUGHT I HAD LOVED, - NO FORM EARTH

I WAS ONCE HAPPY AND BLEST

I WILL GO TO THE GRAVE WHERE MY CHILD HAS GONE

I WOULD FOLLOW THE SUN WHEN THE NORTH WINDS ARISE

IMAGE OF CALM DEVOTION, ON THY BROW

IN ENDLESS CONTRARIETY HAS FLED

IN WISDOM GOD HATH MADE THE WORLD

IS THERE A TEAR THAT SCALDS THE CHEEK?

IT COMES - THE STORM SO LONG REPELLED

IT IA THE NOON OF NIGHT, - THE STARS LOOK FAINT

LET US LOVE WHILE LIFE IS YOUNG

MALVACEA CALLS HER TRIBES AROUND HER THRONE

MOTHERLESS INFANT, TO THE QUIET SLEEP

MY HEART IS SAD, MY HARP IS STILL

NOW THE SETTING SUN IS GLOWING

O EVENING! THOU ART LOVELY: - IN THY DRESS

O FOR A MANTLING BOWER HUNG BY THE LOADED VINE

O MARY, MY DEAREST! THOUGH WAVES ROLL BETWEEN US

O, LOVE WAS MADE TO WORN

ONE EVENING, WHEN THE SKY WAS BLUE

REST, O MY LYRE! TILL THE WINTER OF SORROW

SEE, HOW THE CLEAR, UNSULLIED STREMLET STRAYS

SEE, THE ROSE IS FRESHLY GLOWING

SHALL BE THY SAFETY, AND THE THOUGHTS THAT DWELL

SHE FADED BUT IN BEAUTY; - NOT A CHARM

SHE HAS NO HEART, BUT SHE IS FAIR

SHE WAS THE FIRST I LOVED; BUT YEARS HAD GONE

SHE'S GONE, THE IDOL OF MY HEART

SLOW, THROUGH THE TWILIGHT GLOOM, VALERIO'S KNELL

SOUL OF THE LYRE AND THE SONG!

SPIRIT OF HIGH AND MIGHTY SOULS!

STAR OF MY HEART! THOUGH FAR AWAY

STAR OF MY HEART! THY LIGHT HAS GONE

STAR OF THE DEWY MORNING! FROM THY SPHERE

TENDER ROSE-BUD! SWEETLY BLOOMING

CLOUDS ARE BLACK IN HEAVEN

CYPRESS, IN ITS DARK FUNERAL DRESS

DARK CLOUD IS OVER, THE STORM FLIES AWAY

FRENZY OF A LOVER WHO CAN TELL

LAST BLUE HILL IS FADING IN THE SKY

THIRSTY FIELDS A ROBE OF SADNESS WEAR

WAVE IS RESTING ON THE SEA

WINDS OF THE WINTER ARE OVER

WORLD IS THROWN AROUND US AS A VEIL

THERE IS A CALM LAGOON

THERE IS A WORLD OF MIND, WHICH FEW CAN KNOW

THERE IS AN HOUR, A HEAVENLY HOUR

THERE IS AN INFANT, PILLOWED SWEETLY

THERE IS NOTHING CAN EQUAL THE TENDER HOURS

THERE'S A VALLEY THAT LIES IN THE BOSOM OF HILLS

THESE WEEPING SKIES, THESE WEEPING SKIES

THEY GAZED UPON EACH OTHER. THEY WERE YOUNG

THEY MAY TELL ME, THE SAGES WHO SOBERLY THINK

THEY SAY, THAT ESTEEM IS A DIAMOND SO BRIGHT

THINK, O THINK, HOW MUCH THOU LOV'DST ME

THOU ART ENDEARED TO ME BY ALL

THOU GLORIOUS SPIRIT OF LIFE AND LOVE

THOU HAST COME FROM THY HOME IN THE FAR BLUE SKY

THOU, WHO ERST ON AETNA'S TOP

THY CHARMS ARE ALL DECAYING, LOVE

TO SEE A DEAR ONE CLOSE HER EYES

TRUMPET OF LIBERTY

TWO FLOWERS WERE BUDDING ON ONE STEM

WE HAVE A BODY, - AND ITS CLAMOROUS CALLS

WE MET IN CHEERLESS HOURS, MY DEAR

WHEN I ROAM O'ER THE FIELDS AT THE OPENING OF DAWN

WHEN THE WINTER OF SORROW'S KEEN TEMPESTS ARE BLOWING

WHEN THE WOODLANDS ARE COVERED WITH LEAVES AND FLOWERS

WHERE ARE NOW THE FLOWERS THAT ONCE DETAINED ME

WHERE HAST THOU BEEN ON THY RAINBOW WING

WHO IS THAT MOURNER BENDING O'ER YON GRAVE

YE SACRED LAWS OF LOVE, BY NATURE GIVEN

YES, I AM HE, WHO, ON THE SOUNDING SHORE

YES, WE ARE GODS, AND IN THE BLUE SERENE

YOUTH SEES THE WORLD BEFORE HIM
