Of all the rides since the birth of time
Oh, inexpressible as sweet

Oh, the shambling sea is a sexton old

Oh, who would stay indoor, indoor

Oh, what's the way to Arcady

Old Sorrow I shall meet again

Once it smiled a silent dell

Once this soft turf, this rivulet's sands

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered,

See, from this counterfeit of him

Sence little Wesley went, the place seems all so

Sky in its lucent splendor lifted

So fallen! so lost! the light withdrawn

Sole Lord of Lords and very King of Kings
Southward with fleet of ice

Sparkling and bright in liquid light

The dawn came in through the bars of the blind

The handful here, that once was Mary's earth
The little toy dog is covered with dust

The sky is dark, and dark the bay below.

The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky Home

The tide rises, the tide falls

The wind from out the west is blowing

There are gains for all our losses

There is a city, builded by no hand

These are the days when birds come back
This bronze doth keep the very form and mold
This I beheld, or dreamed it in a dream
This is Palm Sunday; mindful of the day
This is the Burden of the Heart

This is the ship of pearl, which poets feign
Thou blossom bright with autumn dew

Thought is deeper than all speech

Three roses, wan as moonlight, and weighed down
Under a spreading chestnut-tree

Upon a cloud among the stars we stood
Vast hollow voids, beyond the utmost reach
We sat within the farmhouse old

What, cringe to Europe! Band it all in one
What may we take into the vast Forever?
When first the bride and bridegroom wed
When I was a beggarly boy

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night

Years have flown since I knew thee first

You know the old Hidalgo
