A few short hours ago, and all the land
*Ah me! we doubt the shining skies
A little bird I am

[ocr errors]

Angels of Growth, of old in that surprise.
Another hand is beckoning us

[merged small][ocr errors]

As one dark morn I trod a forest glade

As on my bed at dawn I mused and prayed

As ships, becalmed at eve, that lay .
At first, I prayed for sight

Away, haunt thou not me

Beauty may be the path to highest good

Be thou content, be still before

Blest be Thy love, dear Lord.

*Comes something down with eventide
*Cometh sunshine after rain

Darkling, methinks, the path of life is grown
Daughters of Time, the hypocritic Days
*Dear babe, that sleepest cradled by my side
*Dear, secret greenness ! nurst below.

Father, I know that all my life

Father, in Thy mysterious presence kneeling
*Father, into Thy loving hands . . .

Father, I wait Thy word. The sun doth stand
*Fighting the battle of life.

Five years have past; five summers, with the length
From past regret and present faithlessness

*God, whom I as love have known.

*Go not far from me, O my Strength

*Hark, my soul, how every thing

*Hither thou com'st. The busie wind all night

[ocr errors]

How do the rivulets find their way
How pure at heart and sound in head.
Hues of the rich unfolding morn

[ocr errors]

I ask not now for gold to gild.

I bless Thee, Lord, for sorrows sent

*I cannot, cannot say .

I cannot find Thee. Still on restless pinion

I hear it often in the dark

In calm and cool and silence once again
In May, when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
In the mid silence of the voiceless night
*I see the wrong that round me lies
I slept, and dreamed that life was beauty
I stand upon the summit of my years
It fortifies my soul to know

Knows he who tills this lonely field
*Know well, my soul, God's hand controls

Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom.
Let whosoever will, inquire

Life of our life, and Light of all our seeing
Like a blind spinner in the sun

Little face, so sweet, so fair

[ocr errors]

*Little thinks, in the field, yon red-cloaked clown

*Lord, in this dust Thy sovereign voice

*Lord, should we oft forget to sing.

*Lord, with what courage and delight.

Mourner, that dost deserve thy mournfulness

My child is lying on my knees

*My heart is resting, O my God.

IIO

My little doves have left a nest

Mysterious Night! when our first parent knew

*Now with the rising golden dawn

O beauteous things of earth

O fevered eyes, with searching strained
*Oh, it is hard to work for God

O Love Divine, of all that is .
Once on a time, when tempted to repine
Only ten miles from the city

O only Source of all our light and life .
O Shadow in a sultry land.

O stream descending to the sea

*O tell me whence that joy doth spring

O Thou, who givest to the woodland wren
*O unseen Spirit, now a calm divine

O years, gone down into the past

O yet we trust that somehow good

*Plainness and clearness without shadow of stain.

Prophetic Hope, thy fine discourse.

Prune thou thy words, the thoughts control.

Sad is our youth, for it is ever going

[ocr errors]

Sad soul, whom God, resuming what He gave
Say not, the struggle nought availeth
*Scarcely Hope hath shaped for me
She stood outside the gate of heaven
Since Eden, it keeps the secret
Since in a land not barren still
