To His Coy Mistress, by Andrew Marvell
HAD we but world enough, and time,
This coyness, Lady, were no crime
We would sit down and think which way
To walk and pass our long love's day.
Thou by the Indian Ganges' side
Equlips, by Jennifer Concetta
I am perception gone unperseved,
I am knowleadge not yet known,
I am the light that shines above the see,
I am the darkness that comes when the light has gone,
I am a distence travled to the far end of the ocean,
The True Knight, by Stephen Hawes
FOR knighthood is not in the feats of warre,
As for to fight in quarrel right or wrong,
But in a cause which truth can not defarre:
He ought himself for to make sure and strong,
Justice to keep mixt with mercy among:
The Water-Nymph and the Boy, by Roden Berkeley Wriothesley Noel
I FLUNG me round him,
I drew him under;
I clung, I drown'd him,
My own white wonder!...
Father and mother,
Fair and Fair, by George Peele
Oenone. FAIR and fair, and twice so fair,
As fair as any may be;
The fairest shepherd on our green,
A love for any lady.
Paris. Fair and fair, and twice so fair,
You, by Ruth Guthrie Harding
Deep in the heart of me,
Nothing but You!
See through the art of me --
Deep in the heart of me
Find the best part of me,
Men of Harlan, by William Aspinwall Bradley
Here in the level country, where the creeks run straight and wide,
Six men upon their pacing nags may travel side by side.
But the mountain men of Harlan, you may tell them all the while,
When they pass through our village, for they ride in single file.
And the children, when they see them, stop their play and stand and cry,
Werena my Heart's licht I wad dee, by Lady Grisel Baillie
THERE ance was a may, and she lo'ed na men;
She biggit her bonnie bow'r doun in yon glen;
But now she cries, Dool and a well-a-day!
Come doun the green gait and come here away!
When bonnie young Johnnie cam owre the sea,
Immortality, by John Liddell Kelly
At twenty-five I cast my horoscope,
And saw a future with all good things rife --
A firm assurance of eternal life
In worlds beyond, and in this world the hope
Of deathless fame. But now my sun doth slope
Wolfram's Dirge, by Thomas Lovell Beddoes
IF thou wilt ease thine heart
Of love and all its smart,
Then sleep, dear, sleep;
And not a sorrow
Hang any tear on your eyelashes;
March, by Alexander B. McNair
No other month
Is welcomed more than thee:
The furious blast
That hurries past
Is but the winter freed.
When, by Frederick Kambemba Yamusangie
When we were crying,
We were told not to cry
When we were laughing,
We were told not to laugh
When we were eating,
