INDEX OF FIRST LINES
Reading edition
Across the shimmering meadows, 34
After the fierce midsummer all ablaze, 84
Against the planks of the cabin side, 73
Ah, Love, I cannot die, I cannot go, 77
All the ghosts I ever knew, 102
Along her tranquil way she went, 116
And if I came not again, 54
And ye sall walk in silk attire, 92
As a little child I come, 40
As the mother bird to the waiting nest, 24
At Loschwitz above the city, 2
Be not angry with me that I bear, 27
Before I trust my fate to thee, 47
Belovèd, my belovèd, when I think, 26
Bury me deep when I am dead, 113
Carnations and my first love! and he was seventeen, 97
Come back to me, who wait and watch for you, 69
Could ye come back to me, Douglas, Douglas, 114
Cover mine eyes, O my Love!, 35
Dear Love, it was so hard to say, 83
Even for you I shall not weep, 107
Go from me. Yet I feel that I shall stand, 64
Good-bye!—no, do not grieve that it is over, 66
Grandmither, think not I forget, when I come back to town, 108
He was straight and strong, and his eyes were blue, 118
He whistled soft whistlings I knew were for me, 14
Hill people turn to their hills, 23
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways, 43
I am the Other—I who come, 86
I am the wind that wavers, 80
I came into your room and spoke, 58
I cannot always feel his greatness, 37
I have always hated the rain, 29
I have seen the proudest stars, 3
I have wandered to a spring in the forest green and dim, 5
I knew his house by the poplar trees, 120
I leaned out my window, I smelt the white clover, 31
I love my life, but not too well, 59
I love thee, dear, and knowing mine own heart, 51
I must not think of thee; and, tired yet strong, 65
I must not yield ... but if he would not sing!, 63
I read the pain and pathos of your eyes, 117
I sat among the green leaves, and heard the nuts falling, 13
I say it to comfort me over and over, 72
I’ve learned to say it carelessly, 30
I went out to the farthest meadow, 8
I went to dig a grave for Love, 67
I will arise and go hence to the west, 10
I will not give thee all my heart, 56
If I could only serve him, 81
If thou must love me, let it be for nought, 41
It is so long gone by, and yet, 99
Less than the dust, beneath thy Chariot wheel, 119
Let us forget we loved each other much, 76
Love came back at fall o’ dew, 90
Love has gone and left me and the days are all alike, 70
Love me at last, or if you will not, 6
Many in aftertimes will say of you, 78
My Dear was a mason, 36
My debt to you, Belovèd, 46
My heart is like a singing bird, 17
My life closed twice before its close, 53
Never the nightingale, 100
Now evening comes. Now stirs my discontent, 68
O my Lover, blind me, 42
O strong sun of heaven, harm not my love, 21
Of all the souls that stand create, 19
Oh, have you not a message, you who come over the sea?, 85
Oh! I know why the alder trees, 39
Oh, maybe it was yesterday, or fifty years ago!, 94
Oh, the burden, the burden of love ungiven, 12
Oh, when I saw your eyes, 18
Out of the window the trees in the Square, 7
Pines, and a blur of lithe young grasses, 91
Rain, rain,—fall, fall, 33
So beautiful you are, indeed, 20
Somewhere or other there must surely be, 1
Step lightly across the floor, 111
Such special sweetness was about, 52
The flame is spent, I can no more, 121
The hills far-off were blue, blue, 15
The love of my life came not, 103
There is a strong wall about me to protect me, 22
There is no one beside thee, and no one above thee, 62
There was a garden planned in Spring’s young days, 11
To-day I went among the mountain folk, 101
Under dusky laurel leaf, 122
Walk into the world, 60
What good is there, ah me, what good in Love?, 75
When I am dead, my dearest, 112
When I go away from you, 44
When on the marge of evening the last blue light is broken, 25
When the sheep are in the fauld, when the kye’s come hame, 104
When we shall be dust in the churchyard, 79
Whose doorway was it, in the sordid street, 88
Why didst thou come into my life so late?, 96
Yet for one rounded moment I will be, 61
You ask me what—since we must part, 57
You need not say one word to me, as up the hill we go, 49
You say there is no love, my love, 45
