I | I thought once how Theocritus had sung |
II | But only three in all God’s universe |
III | Unlike are we, unlike, O princely Heart! |
IV | Thou hast thy calling to some palace-floor |
V | I lift my heavy heart up solemnly |
VI | Go from me. Yet I feel that I shall stand |
VII | The face of all the world is changed, I think |
VIII | What can I give thee back, O liberal |
IX | Can it be right to give what I can give? |
X | Yet, love, mere love, is beautiful indeed |
XI | And therefore if to love can be desert |
XII | Indeed this very love which is my boast |
XIII | And wilt thou have me fashion into speech |
XIV | If thou must love me, let it be for nought |
XV | Accuse me not, beseech thee, that I wear |
XVI | And yet, because thou overcomest so |
XVII | My poet thou canst touch on all the notes |
XVIII | I never gave a lock of hair away |
XIX | The soul’s Rialto hath its merchandize |
XX | Beloved, my beloved, when I think |
XXI | Say over again, and yet once over again |
XXII | When our two souls stand up erect and strong |
XXIII | Is it indeed so? If I lay here dead |
XXIV | Let the world’s sharpness like a clasping knife |
XXV | A heavy heart, Beloved, have I borne |
XXVI | I lived with visions for my company |
XXVII | My own Beloved, who hast lifted me |
XXVIII | My letters! all dead paper, mute and white! |
XXIX | I think of thee!—my thoughts do twine and bud |
XXX | I see thine image through my tears to-night |
XXXI | Thou comest! all is said without a word |
XXXII | The first time that the sun rose on thine oath |
XXXIII | Yes, call me by my pet-name! let me hear |
XXXIV | With the same heart, I said, I’ll answer thee |
XXXV | If I leave all for thee, wilt thou exchange |
XXXVI | When we met first and loved, I did not build |
XXXVII | Pardon, oh, pardon, that my soul should make |
XXXVIII | First time he kissed me, he but only kissed |
XXXIX | Because thou hast the power and own’st the grace |
XL | Oh, yes! they love through all this world of ours! |
XLI | I thank all who have loved me in their hearts |
XLII | My future will not copy fair my past |
XLIII | How do I love thee? Let me count the ways |
XLIV | Beloved, thou hast brought me many flowers |
