Table of Contents
From the Book - New edition.
Who stands, the crux left of the watershed
From the very first coming down
Control of the passes was, he saw, the key
Taller to-day, we remember similar evenings
Watch any day his nonchalant pauses, see
Will you turn a deaf ear
Sir, no man's enemy, forgiving all
It was Easter as I walked in the public gardens
Since you are going to begin to-day
Consider this and in our time
This lunar beauty
To ask the hard question is simple
Doom is dark and deeper than any sea-dingle
What's in your mind, my dove, my coney
"O where are you going?" said reader to rider
Though aware of our rank and alert to obey orders
O, Love, the interest itself in thoughtless Heaven
O what is that sound which so thrills the ear
Hearing of harvests rotting in the valleys
Out on the lawn I lie in bed
A shilling life will give you all the facts
Our hunting fathers told the story
Easily, my dear, you move, easily your head
The Summer holds: upon its glittering lake
Now through night's caressing grip
O for doors to be open and an invite with gilded edges
Look, stranger, at this island now
Now the leaves are falling fast
Dear, though the night is gone
Casino
Journey to Iceland
"O who can ever gaze his fill"
Lay your sleeping head, my love
Spain
Orpheus
Miss Gee
Wrapped in a yielding air, beside
As I walked out one evening
Oxford
In time of war
The Capital
Musee des Beaux Arts
Epitaph on a tyrant
In memory of W. B. Yeats
Refugee blues
The unknown citizen
September 1, 1939
Law, say the gardeners, is the sun
In memory of Sigmund Freud
Lady, weeping at the crossroads
Song for St. Cecilia's Day
The quest
But I can't
In sickness and in health
Jumbled in the common box
Atlantis
At the grave of Henry James
Mundus et infans
The lesson
The sea and the mirror
Noon
Lament for a lawgiver
Under which lyre
The Fall of Rome
In praise of limestone
Song
A Walk after dark
Memorial for the city
Under Sirius
Fleet visit
The Shield of Achilles
The willow-wren and the stare
Nocturne
Bucolics
