APRIL - An altered look about the hills
An altered look about the hills; / A Tyrian light the village fills;
ASLEEP
ASLEEP. / As far from pity as complaint,
ASTRA CASTRA - Departed to the judgment
Departed to the judgment, / A mighty afternoon;
AT LENGTH
Her final summer was it, / And yet we guessed it not;
AURORA - Of bronze and blaze
Of bronze and blaze / The north, to-night!
AUTUMN - The morns are meeker than they were
The morns are meeker than they were, / The nuts are getting brown;
As imperceptibly as grief
As imperceptibly as grief / The summer lapsed away, --

At half-past three a single bird / Unto a silent sky

BEAUTY crowds me till I die, / Beauty, mercy have on me!

Just lost when I was saved! / Just felt the world go by!

Of all the souls that stand create / I have elected one.
COBWEBS - The spider as an artist
The spider as an artist / Has never been employed
COMPENSATION - For each ecstatic instant
For each ecstatic instant / We must an anguish pay
CONSECRATION - Proud of my broken heart since thou didst break it,
Proud of my broken heart since thou didst break it, / Proud of the pain I did not feel till thee,
Could I but ride indefinite
Could I but ride indefinite, / As doth the meadow-bee,
DAY'S PARLOR - The day came slow, till five o'clock
The day came slow, till five o'clock, / Then sprang before the hills
