26715 | I cried, in my passionate longing:--"Has the earth no Angel- friend Who will carry my love the message That my heart desires to send?" |
26715 | I stretch out my hands; who will clasp them? |
26715 | If there are ghosts to raise, What shall I call, Out of hell''s murky haze, Heaven''s blue pall? |
26715 | If there were dreams to sell, Merry and sad to tell, And the crier rung the bell, What would you buy? |
26715 | If there were dreams to sell, What would you buy? |
26715 | Is Gerty loth? |
26715 | Is Gerty loved? |
26715 | Is that thy lesson in the limes? |
26715 | It is not worth the keeping: let it go: But shall it? |
26715 | Lucilla asks, if that be all, Have I not culled as sweet before? |
26715 | My eyes were blinded, your words were few: Do you know the truth now up in heaven, Douglas, Douglas, tender and true? |
26715 | Now the tones become clearer,--you hear more and more How the water divided returns on the oar,-- Does the prow of the Gondola strike on the stair? |
26715 | Or, if she''s either, is she both? |
26715 | Perchance this pearl, without a speck, Once was as warm on Sappho''s neck; Where are the happy, twilight pearls That braided Beatrice''s curls? |
26715 | She lives, I think, On heavenly drink Dawn- dew, which Hebe pours for her; Else-- when I sip At her soft lip How smells it of ambrosia? |
26715 | She''s fancy free, but sweeter far Than many plighted maidens are: Will Gerty smile us all away, And still be Gerty? |
26715 | Sing!--Who sings To her who weareth a hundred rings? |
26715 | Sleep were no sweeter than her face to me, Sleep of cold sea- bloom under the cold sea; What pain could get between my face and hers? |
26715 | The Angel''s Whisper 141 What will you do, Love? |
26715 | Then what said I?--Gallant replies Seem flattery, and offend her:-- But,--meet no angels, Pansie? |
26715 | Then, why not die? |
26715 | There is such pleasure in thine eyes, Such music on thy tongue; There is such glory on thy face-- What can the meaning be? |
26715 | Those golden times by memory cherished? |
26715 | Thy music ends, and where are they? |
26715 | Unless, perhaps, white death had kissed me there, Kissing her hair? |
26715 | W. Procter_(_ Barry Cornwall_) 165 How many times do I love thee, dear? |
26715 | WHAT DO TEARS AVAIL?_ Peace! |
26715 | Was that thine echo, faint and far? |
26715 | What do Tears Avail? |
26715 | What is the meaning of the song That rings so clear and loud, Thou nightingale amid the copse-- Thou lark above the cloud? |
26715 | What is the meaning of thy thought, O maiden fair and young? |
26715 | What new sweet thing would love not relish worse? |
26715 | What says the song, thou joyous thrush, Up in the walnut- tree? |
26715 | What sound is that, so soft, so clear, Harmonious as a bubbled tear Bursting, we hear? |
26715 | What to me the starlight still, Or the moonbeams''splendour, If I do not feel the thrill Of thy fingers slender? |
26715 | What will kill this dull old fellow? |
26715 | What would I do?" |
26715 | Who can say? |
26715 | Who is the baby, that doth lie Beneath the silken canopy Of thy blue eye? |
26715 | Why did my heart not haste? |
26715 | Why did the summer not begin? |
26715 | Why looks the lover wroth? |
26715 | Why nurse the trembling dream until to- morrow? |
26715 | Why suffer again her doom of sorrow, And hopeless lie? |

2831 | As you ride far and near? |
2831 | But sickness at hame and want at the door-- You gied me your hand, while your heart it was sore; I saw it was sore,--why took I her hand? 2831 But what helps complaining? |
2831 | Hast thou any green cloth,said our king,"That thou wilt sell now to me?" |
2831 | Hast thou thy land again? |
2831 | How could you say my face was fair, And yet that face forsake? 2831 How should''st thou, fair lady, love me, Whom thou know''st thy country''s foe? |

2831 | Anon then said good Rob- in, To that lad- ye free,"What man hath your lord i- take?" |
2831 | Believe the flattering tale? |

2831 | Erl William''s heart mair cauld is grown;( Hey, luve mine, quhan dawis the day?) |
2831 | For why? |
2831 | Hast thou any friends,"said Robin,"Thy borowes that will be?" |
2831 | Her father and mother observed her decay;"What ails ye, my bairn?" |
2831 | How could you win my virgin heart, Yet leave that heart to break? |
2831 | How man- y men,"said Rob- in,"Had this monk, John?" |
2831 | How much is in yonder other courser?" |
2831 | I pray you tell to me; You might thus make officers shent, Good sirs, of whence be ye?" |
2831 | In what country were thou born, And where is thy wonning wan?" |
2831 | John said,"What grieveth thee? |
2831 | Lo here we have the King- es seal; What, lourdain, art thou wood?" |
2831 | My heart it said na, and I looked for Jamie back, But hard blew the winds, and his ship was a wrack; His ship was a wrack-- why didna Jamie dee? |
2831 | Now tell me what art thou?" |
2831 | O see ye nat what I see? |
2831 | O, will ye gae wi''me and see?" |

2831 | Or any room at your side, Willie, Wherein that I may creep?" |
2831 | Or is''t my brother John? |
2831 | Or is''t my true love Willie, From Scotland new come home?" |
2831 | Or why am I spared to cry,"Woe is me?" |
2831 | Peter, Paul, or John? |
2831 | Sa- y me now, wight young man, What is now thy name? |
2831 | The first word the abbot spake,"Hast th- ou brought m- y pay?" |
2831 | The king sits in Dumferling toune, Drinking the blude- reid wine:"O whare will I get a skeely skipper To sail this new ship of mine?" |
2831 | The usher said:"Yeomen, what would ye have? |
2831 | Then bespake him Robin Hood, To that knight so free,"What need driveth thee to green wood? |
2831 | What dost thou here,"said the abb- ot,"But thou hadst brought thy pay?" |
2831 | What is in your coffers?" |
2831 | What is thy name, fair maid?" |
2831 | What rescues could ye find? |
2831 | What tiding- es from Nottingham? |
2831 | Why did you swear my eyes were bright, Yet leave those eyes to weep? |

2831 | Why say ye so? |
2831 | Why should ye nought? |
2831 | Will you hear a Spanish lady, How she wooed an Englishman? |
2831 | Wonning wan: where is thy, in what direction is thy home? |
2831 | must I stay?" |
2831 | said Rob- in,"Thereof will I right none; Weenest thou I will have God to borowe? |
2831 | said Robin,"And these arrows i- feathered free?" |
2831 | said the King,"And my Sheriff also?" |
2831 | what have ye done? |
2831 | what things are those? |
2831 | where was he? |
2831 | whither will ye go? |
42585 | How dar''st thou then with impious hand,This public property invade? |
42585 | Now draw thy rein, thou jolly Butcher; How far hast thou to ride? |
42585 | Oh, what is thy boon? 42585 Oh, what thee ails, thou drunken Butcher?" |

27129 | Shall I laugh at her denying? |
27129 | Shall I look to ease my grief? |
27129 | Shall I not excluded be, Will you find no feignèd let? |
27129 | Shall I not pluck( sweet, say not_ nay_) those cherries? |

45241 | O ben then cam now Sweet Willie, Saying,"Bride, will ye dance wi''me?" |
45241 | O ben then cam the auld French lord, Saying,"Bride, will ye dance with me?" |
45241 | O gentle death, when wilt thou come? |
45241 | O she has ta''en her thro''the ha, And on her son began to ca;"What did ye wi''the bonny beads I bade you keep against your needs? |

45241 | Oh, tell me where thy dwelling be?" |
45241 | Or are ye my true love, sweet William, From England newly come?" |
45241 | Or are you mourning, in your tide, That you should be Cospatrick''s bride?" |
45241 | Or are you returned back again To know more of my love?" |
45241 | Or be you not within? |
45241 | Or how my true love knaw, Amang so many unco knights, The like I never saw?" |
45241 | Or is any of thy good friends dead, Which makes thee shed such tears? |

45241 | Says"whether have you left with me Your bracelet or your glove? |
45241 | Says,"Sleep you, wake you, fair Sir Gyles? |

45241 | The Bonny Earl of Murray Ye Highlands, and ye Lawlands, O where have you been? |
45241 | The king lookt over his left shoulder, Amongst his lords and barons so free;"Have I never lord in all my realm, Will fetch yond traitor unto me?" |
45241 | The one of them said to his mate,"Where shall we our breakfast take?" |
45241 | The usher said,"Yeomen, what would ye have? |
45241 | Then out it spak the lady, As she stood on the stair,"What ails my bairn, nourice, That he''s greeting sae sair? |
45241 | Then up and bespake the Lord Mangerton,"What news, what news, sister Downie, to me?" |
45241 | Thy steed eats oats and hay, And thou a fair lady in thine arms,-- And wouldst thou be away?" |
45241 | Up she starts, as white as the milk, Between him and his company:"What is the thing I hae to ask, If I should win the victory?" |
45241 | What aileth thee at me? |
45241 | What is your will with me?" |

45244 | But what have ye done with the bearing- bread, And what have ye made of the washing- wine? 45244 But whither,"she, starting, exclaims,"have you led me? |
45244 | Did ye ever see French Janet, That was so blithe and coy? 45244 Gin that''s the blast of Armour, laddie, I fear they''ll slay us all,""And will they slay my mother, then, That looks so bonny and small?" |
45244 | Ha''ye searched through every convent- close, And sought in every den? 45244 I am young Malespina''s bride; Has he come hither yet?" |
45244 | I passed and bowed before thy face, And once thine eyes met mine; Once I have kissed thy hand;-- Hast thou no sign? 45244 Is Malespina here?" |
45244 | Many a name I know, But never a name like this; O, where shall I find a skilly man Shall tell me what it is? |
45244 | Now who dare venture at this dark hour, Unbid to enter my maiden bower? |
45244 | O one, one request, my lord, one and no other, O this one request will you grant it to me? 45244 O what will ye give my son to eat, Red rose leaves will never make wine?" |
45244 | O what''s the blood of a sinful heart To bind the stones that fall? 45244 O whatten a prey wad they think to take"( Sweet fruits are sair to gather)"That they delve the dykes for a dead man''s sake?" |
45244 | O whatten a slayer is this,they said,( Sweet fruits are sair to gather)"That the straik of his hand should raise his dead?" |
45244 | O whatten a wreck wad they seek on land( Sweet fruits are sair to gather)"That they houk the turf to the seaward hand?" |
45244 | O who for Erin will strike a stroke? 45244 O why do they build the tower so strong Against the riverside? |
45244 | O, what have I done to my friend, O, what have I done to mysel'', That he should be cold and dead, And I in the danger of all? 45244 O, what shall I say to our father, In the place to which I fare? |
45244 | O, why should I dwell here With a weird upon my life, When the clansmen shout for battle And the war- swords clash in strife? 45244 Or what will ye get my son to wear, Red rose leaves will never make wine?" |
45244 | Or what will ye give me for my son, Red rose leaves will never make wine? |
45244 | Or what will ye give my son for land, Red rose leaves will never make wine? |
45244 | Or what will ye take to line his bed, Red rose leaves will never make wine? |
45244 | Red wine to fill your fountains full? 45244 Should youth and valour thus despair, And pour their vows to the empty air?" |
45244 | So ye chates me because I''m in grief; O, is that, by the Holy, the rason? 45244 Soldier, soldier come from the wars, Did aught take''arm to my true love?" |
45244 | Soldier, soldier come from the wars, Did you see no more o''my true love? |
45244 | Soldier, soldier come from the wars, Do you bring no sign from my true love? |
45244 | Soldier, soldier come from the wars, What did you see o''my true love? |
45244 | There''s a smirch o''pouther on your breast, Below the left lappel? |
45244 | There''s a thrid o''hair on your dress- coat breast, Aboon the heart a wee? |
45244 | What ails ye, bonny mower, You sit so mournfully? |
45244 | What pleasant scenes to see the while, My Bliss on Earth, mine own? |
45244 | What wondrous scenes therein to see, My Bliss on Earth, mine own? |
45244 | Who''ll go and fetch the basket? |
45244 | Will you seek with me the dim church aisle, O Mauria ni Milleôn? |
45244 | ''Twas the Bridegroom sat at the table- head, And the lights burnt bright and clear--"Oh, who is that,"the Bridegroom said,"Whose weary feet I hear?" |
45244 | A keen sweet note from the spray''s rim springs--"What fires are these of thine?" |
45244 | A soft strange cry from the landward rings--"What ails the sea to shine?" |
45244 | All in white,--not ivory For young bloom past away,-- Blossom- white, rose- white, White of the May;''Twixt white dress and white neck, Who could say? |
45244 | All up? |
45244 | And didst thou visit him no more? |
45244 | And to all the kindly Camerons That have lived and died long- syne-- Is this the word you send them Fause- hearted brother mine?" |
45244 | And where does he tarry, The lord of the field? |
45244 | And why does silence fall, As one by one they turn to her, Upon them all? |
45244 | Are not his sandy deeps unstirred, And thrust against the shore? |
45244 | At the fifth hour all was dimness Alike to him and her; One low and passionate murmur Still moved the air; Is it the voice of angels,-- Or her prayer? |
45244 | At the first hour after midnight, As in the eider''s nest, The weary head sank soft into A heavenly rest; Is it a bed of roses,-- Or her breast? |
45244 | At the first hour after midnight, The Queen nor spoke nor stirred; At the second, by her bedside, No breath they heard; They said,"Is she living?" |
45244 | At the second hour the cold limbs Felt comfort unaware; Flickering, a golden glow Warmed all the air: Is it the hearth- flame lighted,-- Or her hair? |
45244 | But never an answer spake St Maur, Never a word but one:"Have you finished your devil''s work, mason, Or when will the deed be done?" |
45244 | But who is he who lingereth yet? |
45244 | By all thy hopes of weal and bliss, Has Sir Turlough given the fatal kiss?" |
45244 | CAPTAIN GOLD AND FRENCH JANET|The first letter our Captain wrote To the Lord of Mantua:"Did you ever see French Janet( He wrote) on any day? |
45244 | De Lacy and D''Alton, can ye reckon your slain? |
45244 | Do I know if mouse or song- bird feels? |
45244 | Does the dancing languish slower? |
45244 | Doth not a mighty ramp of sand Beleaguer all the bay, Mocking the strength of mortal hand To pierce or sweep away? |
45244 | Faintly the words were uttered, Low, betwixt moan and moan:"Here in the wilderness, Lost and alone, I die, and far away, Hast thou known? |
45244 | For thy dire woe, forlorn Padstow, What remedy may be? |
45244 | Has De Netterville fled? |
45244 | Hath Ocean, think ye then, not heard His dying child deplore? |
45244 | Have you no prayer to set us free? |
45244 | He turned; he felt his heart''s blood run; He sought his enemy:"And shall I leave my deeds undone, And die for such as thee?" |
45244 | He''s lain the hammer down at last Out of his bony hand..."Did ye never hear the spell, St Maur, Gars any tower to stand?" |
45244 | He''s set the child high in the air Upon his shoulder bone;"Shall I leave them all for Armour, Or shall I take but one?" |
45244 | Here''s nought but a tomb and a dark cypress tree; Is_ this_ the bright palace in which thou would''st we d me?" |
45244 | I axed if he was fit for to die, Without having duly repented? |
45244 | I saw him glare, and dangle in air,--for the empty hole he trod-- Helped by a_ pair of hands_ up there!--the InJin''s? |
45244 | Is it only the wind could whisper To the night? |
45244 | Is it only the wolves of the Northland Know where his bones lie white? |
45244 | Is she girt with babes that whine and whimper, That bright being who was always gay? |
45244 | May I eat dirt if thou hast hurt of me in deed or breath; What dam of lances brought thee forth to jest at the dawn with Death?" |
45244 | My Bliss on Earth,_ mo store!_* What woful deed is this you do, O youth whom I adore? |
45244 | Now name, name those sons of fame, Who''ll match them nearer and farther? |
45244 | O loud and lang they cried on him, And sair and sair they prayed:"Is the face of thy grace as the night''s face grim For those thy wrath has made?" |
45244 | O, what shall I say to our mother Who greets to see me there? |
45244 | O, you of the outland tongue, You of the painted face, This is the place of my death; Can you tell me the name of the place?" |
45244 | Oh, the soft flutes wail and sigh; In silver falling and calling, They seek reply; And the heart is sinking, sinking, Why, ah why? |
45244 | Oh, why is the Queen so pale to- night? |
45244 | One sudden, lifted glance-- but one, A tremor and a start, So gently was their greeting done That who would guess their heart? |
45244 | Only the swans could tell us, In southward flight? |
45244 | Or where have ye made your bearing- bed, To bear a son in the sides of Tyne?" |
45244 | Pale, pale sleeps Bronwen, pale she wakes;"What bird to my bower is flown? |
45244 | Red blood to wash your streets? |
45244 | Red gold to fill your moat? |
45244 | SOLDIER, SOLDIER[ Illustration: 9165]|Soldier, soldier come from the wars, Why do n''t you march with my true love?" |
45244 | Saved? |
45244 | She crossed the hill to the fishing- boats, And away she sailed so fine,"Is it far, my love, in the summer sun To the shores of fair Palestine?" |
45244 | Sobb''st beneath a carrier''s thong? |
45244 | Still hanging? |
45244 | Strain''st a coalman''s cart along? |
45244 | THE TOWER OF ST MAUR|Where''s my little son, Nourrice, And whither is he gone? |
45244 | THE WITCH- MOTHER|O where will ye gang to and where will ye sleep, Against the night begins?" |
45244 | The Bridegroom in his robe of white Sat at the table- head--"Oh, who is that who moans without?" |
45244 | The Bridegroom shaded his eyes and look''d, And his face was bright to see--"What dost thou here at the Lord''s Supper With thy body''s sins?" |
45244 | The Colonel''s son a pistol drew and held it muzzle- end,"Ye have taken the one from a foe,"said he;"will ye take the mate from a friend?" |
45244 | The shaded light of rubies Streams from every part Down the golden supper;-- Who is sick at heart? |
45244 | The third moon swelled towards the full When the third letter he wrote:"What will ye take for Janet? |
45244 | The upper spake to the lower,"Are ye, or do ye seem?" |
45244 | The wanderer wept As if his heart was breaking;"And where,_ avic machree_"* he said,"Is all the merry- making I found here twenty years ago?" |
45244 | The white heath and white harebell Let their chimes rise and fall, The delicate sheets of wood- sorrel Unfolded all, For a bed of bridal-- Or a pall? |
45244 | Then rose,"And am I mad?" |
45244 | Then the Roundhead General said, Fingering his sword:"Art thou coming to be we d Like a heathen lord? |
45244 | There''s one that''s neither stark nor wan, But never he looked so well;"Shall I gang to the devil, St Maur?" |
45244 | They sayde,"And why should this thing be? |
45244 | They sought to free their land from thrall of stranger,-- Was it treason? |
45244 | To receive from his Eva her virgin vow;"Why tarries the bride of my bosom now?" |
45244 | Was it earth''s or hell''s waste womb that bore Such births as should not be? |
45244 | What danger lowers by land or sea? |
45244 | What did Phil do? |
45244 | What form do they carry Aloft on his shield? |

45244 | What refuge shall it win? |
45244 | What said the Invader, that pomp in sight? |
45244 | Whence comes that cold wind shivering Down the hall? |
45244 | Whence comes the licht That wimples on his face?" |
45244 | Where''s your chieftain, fierce Nangle? |
45244 | Where, old lass, have they earthed thee down? |
45244 | Who hurl yon planks where the waters roar?" |
45244 | Why should I ever leave this spot, But gaze until I die?" |
45244 | Why sing of red battle-- what dream dost thou dream? |
45244 | Why was I born to be abhorr''d of man and bird and beast? |
45244 | Will a swallow-- or a swift, or some bird-- Fly to her and say, I love her still? |
45244 | Winter is here, and has not brought The Traveller of renown; Why has he not come back again To court and town? |
45244 | With foreheads unruffled The conquerors come-- But why have they muffled The lance and the drum? |
45244 | With swelling heart I grasped his hand; The old man murmured,"Deary, Are you the silken- headed child That loved poor Caoch O''Leary?" |
45244 | [ Illustration: 0139]"What''s in your basket, Nancibel?" |

45244 | straight he saith;"Where is my wife, Elizabeth?" |
45244 | the wanderer cried,"Far, far be hell, black viper; Does anybody hereabouts Remember Caoch, the piper?" |
45244 | we were silent then: Shall we boast and brag to- day? |
45244 | what ails me, Nancibel? |
45244 | what deed is this you do? |

45243 | And is he gone, and is he gone? |
45243 | And what is friendship but a name, A charm that lulls to sleep, A shade that follows wealth or fame, But leaves the wretch to weep? 45243 And will he never come again? |
45243 | And will your mother pity me, Who am a maiden most forlorn? |
45243 | By thy long grey beard and glittering eye, Now wherefore stopp''st thou me? 45243 D ye mind when in that lonely bower We met at even tide, I kissed your young an''rosy lips, An''wooed you for my bride? |
45243 | Dunellie he has daughters five, An''some o''them are fair, Sae, how will I ken thy true love Amang sae mony there? |

45243 | Hae I left kith an''kin, Sir Knight, To turn about and rue? 45243 Hast thou seen the wounds?" |
45243 | His cheek was redder than the rose; The comeliest youth was he? 45243 His horsemen hard behind us ride; Should they our steps discover, Then who will cheer my bonny bride When they have slain her lover?" |
45243 | I saw the blush break on your cheek, The tear stand in your e''e; Oh, could I ween, fair Lady Jane, That then ye lo''ed na me? |

45243 | My gentle lad, what is''t you read-- Romance or fairy fable? 45243 My page, my page, what grieves thee so, That the tears run down thy face?" |
45243 | Nay now, of the dead what can you say, Little brother? |
45243 | Nay now, when looked you yet on blood, Little brother? |
45243 | Nay then, shall I slay a living man, Little brother? |

38037 | At kirk and market when we meet, We''ll dare make nae avowe, But--''Dame, how does my gay goss- hawk?'' 38037 But how sall I your true love find, Or how suld I her know? |
38037 | But if you are a carle''s daughter, As I take you to be, 210 How did you get the gay clothing, In green wood ye had on thee? |
38037 | But if you be a carle''s daughter, As I believe you be, How did ye learn the good Latin, In green wood ye spoke to me? |
38037 | But wha will bake my bridal bread, Or brew my bridal ale? 38037 But wha will bake your wedding bread, And brew your bridal ale? |
38037 | But where''s the lady o''this castle? |
38037 | Gude day, gude day, my liege the king, 55 Gude day, gude day, to thee;"Gude day,quo''he,"my lady fair, What is''t ye want wi''me?" |
38037 | Hath any one done to thee wronge, Any of thy fellowes here? 38037 How can we get at her?" |
38037 | How do ye now, ye sweet Tamas? 38037 How shall I come down, how can I come down, How shall I come down to thee? |
38037 | How shall we get them down? |
38037 | How will I come up? 38037 Is there never a knighte amongst yee all Will fight for my daughter and mee? |
38037 | Is this the bairn o''this house? |
38037 | It''s how can I come doun, This cauld frosty nicht, Without e''er a coal Or a clear candle licht? |
38037 | Jump on behind, ye weill- faur''d may, 35 Or do ye chuse to ride? |
38037 | May be I am a carle''s daughter, And may be never nane; 150 When ye met me in the green wood, Why did you not let me alane? |
38037 | May be I am a carle''s daughter, And may be never nane; 190 When ye met me in the good green wood, Why did you not let me alane? 38037 My father he is a baron bolde, Of lynage proude and hye; And what would he saye if his daughter 75 Awaye with a knight should fly? |
38037 | O Guid forbid,said fair Annie,"That e''er the like fa''in my hand; 50 Wou''d I forsake my ain gude lord, And follow you, a gae- through- land? |
38037 | O I am waking, sweete,he said,"Sweete ladye, what is your will?" |
38037 | O came ye here to hunt or hawk, As ye hae dune before, O? 38037 O dinna ye see that bonny castell, 105 Wi''halls and towers sae fair? |

38037 | O has he robbed you of your gold, Or has he robbed you of your fee? |
38037 | O have ye tint, at tournament, 5 Your sword, or yet your spear? 38037 O how can I carry a letter to her, 5 When her I do not know? |
38037 | O how can I look maiden- like, When maiden I''ll ne''er be; 10 When seven brave sons I''ve born to thee, And the eighth is in my bodie? 38037 O mindna ye on your sister Bess, That lives in the French countrie?" |
38037 | O quha is this has don this deid, This ill deid don to me; To send me out this time o''the zeir, To sail upon the se? 38037 O sall I kill her, nourice? |
38037 | O tell me this now, good lord John, And a word ye dinna lie, How far it is to your lodgin, Whare we this night maun be? |
38037 | O wha is yon, that came this way, Sae hastilie that hither came? 38037 O wha''s blood is this,"he says, 85"That lies in the châmer?" |
38037 | O whae is this at my bower door, That chaps sae late, or kens the gin? |
38037 | O whare is your gude lord? |
38037 | O what means a''this greeting? 38037 O what''ll my poor father think, As he comes through the town, 70 To see the face of his Molly fair Hanging on the gallows pin? |
38037 | O where is now my ain gude lord, He stays sae far frae me? |
38037 | O where is now my wedded lord, And where now can he be? 38037 O where is your lady?" |
38037 | O where will I get a bonny boy, That will win hose and shoon,-- That will gang quickly to Sittingen''s rocks, And bid my lady come? |
38037 | O where will I get a little boy, 25 That will win hose and shoon, To rin sae fast to Darlinton, And bid fair Eleanor come? |
38037 | O where will I get a little wee boy Will tak''my helm in hand, Till I gae up to my tapmast, And see for some dry land? |
38037 | Of that same gift wuld ye give me, If I wuld bring him unto thee? 38037 Or hae ye onie lands or rents 105 Lying at libertie? |
38037 | Ride softlye,shee sayd,"O Childe Waters: Why doe you ryde so fast? |
38037 | Seest thou not yonder hall, Ellen? 38037 Seest thou not yonder hall, Ellen? |
38037 | Sith you have had your wille of mee, And put me to open shame, Now, if you are a courteous knighte, 15 Tell me what is your name? |
38037 | Sleepe you, wake you, faire Sir Gyles? 38037 The very sole o''that lady''s foot 5 Than thy face is far mair white:""But, nevertheless, now, Erl Richard, Ye will bide in my bower a''night?" |
38037 | There is a knicht into your court, This day has robbed me;60"O has he tane your gowd,"he says,"Or has he tane your fee?" |
38037 | There need nae bason, Lamkin; Lat it run through the floor; What better is the heart''s blood O''the rich than o''the poor? |
38037 | Wad ye ken your fause love, Amang a hundred men? |
38037 | Wha looks to dreams, my winsome dame? 38037 Wha was your father, my girl,"she says,"Or wha was your mother? |
38037 | Whar are ye gaing Sir James,she said,"O whar awa are ye riding?" |
38037 | Whar sall I gae, whar sall I rin, Whar sall I rin to lay me? 38037 Whare gat ye that gay claithing, 45 This day I see on thee?" |
38037 | What ails the king at me,he said,"What ails the king at me?" |
38037 | What brought ye here, my lady gay, So far awa from your ain countrie? 38037 What care I for Lonkin, Or any of his gang? |
38037 | What care I for your hundred pounds? 38037 What is your will, my own wed- lord? |
38037 | What news, what news, my bonny boy, What news have ye to me? 38037 What news, what news, palmer,"she said,"And from what countrie cam ye?" |
38037 | What tydinges nowe, my boye? |
38037 | When will ye, Michaell o''Livingston, Wad for this lady gay? |
38037 | Where are the lads o''this castle? |
38037 | Where hae ye been, now, ladye fair, Where hae ye been sae late? 38037 Where''s the lord of the hall?" |
38037 | Where''s the maids of the hall? |
38037 | Where''s the men of the hall? |
38037 | Why grieve you, damselle faire? |
38037 | Why weep ye so, ye burgess wives, 65 Why look ye so on me? 38037 Wi me, Marg''ret, wi me, Marg''ret, 5 What wad ye do wi''me? |
38037 | Will I go to the salt, salt seas, And see the fishes swim? 38037 Will ye gae to the cards or dice, Or to a tavern fine? |
38037 | Will you wear the short clothes, Or will you wear the side; Or will you walk to your wedding, 155 Or will you till it ride? |
38037 | -- 120 The boy stared wild like a gray goss- hawk, Says,--"What may a''this mean?" |
38037 | -- 60 In anger he went to the Queen, Who fell upon her knee; He said,"You false, unchaste woman, What''s this you''ve done to me?" |
38037 | -- Out up then spake a bonny bird, Sat high upon a tree,-- 30"How could you kill that noble lord? |
38037 | -- Then up and spake the popinjay, 95 Says--"What needs a''this din? |
38037 | --"But how can I gang maiden- like, When maiden I am nane? |
38037 | --"Gar douk, gar douk,"the King he cried,"Gar douk for gold and fee; O wha will douk for Erl Richard''s sake, 65 Or wha will douk for me?" |
38037 | --"O how sall I eat or drink, master, Wi''heart sae fu''o''pine?" |
38037 | 10 So Marie mild, where is the child? |
38037 | 100"O nourice, wanted ye your meat, Or wanted ye your fee, Or wanted ye for any thing, A fair lady could gie?" |
38037 | 100"O was ye gentle gotten, maid? |
38037 | 110"O wha was''t was your father, Annie, Or wha was''t was your mother? |
38037 | 140 The bride gan stand her lord before:"Now speak, and dinna spare; Whare is this fair young lady frae? |
38037 | 20 And whan our parish- masse was done, Our kinge was bowne to dyne: He sayes,"Where is Syr Cauline, That is wo nt to serve the wyne?" |
38037 | 20 But think na ye my heart was sair, When I laid the moul''on his yellow hair; O think na ye my heart was wae, When I turn''d about, away to gae? |
38037 | 20 Have I not born seven sons to thee, And am with child again?" |
38037 | 20 He turn''d him right and round about, And to the queen said he,--"Who is the bravest man, my dame, That ever your een did see?" |
38037 | 20 My lord he stood upon the deck, I wyte he hail''d me courteouslie;"Ye are thrice welcome, my lady gay, Whase aught that bairn on your knee?" |
38037 | 20 Now ben did come his father dear, Wearing a golden band; Says,"Is there nae leech in Edinburgh, Can cure my son from wrang?" |
38037 | 20 Queen Mary came tripping down the stair, Wi''the gold strings in her hair:"O whare''s the little babie,"she says,"That I heard greet sae sair?" |
38037 | 20"O come ye here to part your land, The bonnie Forest thorough? |
38037 | 20"O wha is this has done this deed, And tauld the king o''me, To send us out at this time of the year, To sail upon the sea? |
38037 | 20"O whare''s a''the men o''this house, That ca''me Lamkin?" |
38037 | 20"O where is his auld son?" |
38037 | 20"Why make ye all this moan, lady? |
38037 | 240"And what wold ye doe with my harpe,"he sayd, Iff I did sell it yee?" |
38037 | 30 Is Earl Robert in very good health, And the ladies of your countrie?" |
38037 | 30 Or wha will welcome your brisk bride That you bring owre the dale?" |
38037 | 30 Or what''s the matter, Fause Foodrage, Or wha has loot you in?" |
38037 | 30 Or will ye gae to a table forebye, And birl baith beer and wine?" |
38037 | 30"Where''s the ladies of the hall?" |
38037 | 335,)_ refreshed with food_? |
38037 | 40 The King said unto Rodingham,"What news have you to me?" |
38037 | 40"How far is it frae your mither''s bouer, Gude Lord John tell to me?" |
38037 | 40"I send him the rings from my white fingers, The garlands off my hair; I send him the heart that''s in my breast: What would my love have mair? |
38037 | 40"O see na ye yon castell, Ellen, That shines sae fair to see? |
38037 | 40"What hath he robbed thee of, sweet heart? |
38037 | 40"Where are the lasses o''this castle?" |
38037 | 45 And how gaes a''in your countrie?" |
38037 | 50 O where is now my wedded lord? |
38037 | 50"What''s that thou says, thou limmer loon? |
38037 | 60 Then out it speaks Sir Patrick Spens,--"O how can a''this bee? |
38037 | 60"O where will I get a gude sailor, To take my helm in hand, Till I get up to the tall topmast, To see if I can spy land?" |
38037 | 65"What is your will with mee?" |
38037 | 70 53, Should we not read_ warld''s mate_? |
38037 | 80"Will I kill her?" |
38037 | 90 Then up and spake the King himsell, When he saw the deadly wound--"O wha has slain my right- hand man, That held my hawk and hound?" |
38037 | 90"She sends you the rings from her fingers, The garlands from her hair; She sends you the heart within her breast: And what would you have mair? |
38037 | 95''Madame, how does my dow?''" |
38037 | And aye he turn''d him round about, And smiled amang his men, 80 Says--"Like ye best the old ladye, Or her that''s new come hame?" |
38037 | And had you ony sister, Annie, Or had you ony brother?" |
38037 | And wha will welcome my brisk bride, That I bring o''er the dale?" |
38037 | As I was walking all alane, I heard twa corbies making a mane; The tane unto the t''other say,"Where sall we gang and dine to- day?" |
38037 | As they were drinking ale and wine Within kyng Estmeres halle, 10"When will ye marry a wyfe, brother, A wyfe to gladd us all?" |
38037 | But deep into the wan water There stands a great big stone; He turned his wight horse head about, Said,"Lady fair, will ye loup on?" |
38037 | But in and cam the Queen hersel, Wi''gowd plait on her hair;-- 20 Says,"Mary Hamilton, whare is the babe That I heard greet sae sair?" |
38037 | But out and spak lord John''s mother, 85 And a wise woman was she:"Whare met ye wi''that bonny boy, That looks sae sad on thee? |
38037 | But then spake a wylie lord, Unto the queen said he:"O tell me quha''s the fairest face Rides in the company?" |
38037 | Fair Annie is till his mither gane: 125"O lady mither,"said she,"May I gang to the bridal bower, My lord''s new bride to see?" |
38037 | Fair Christabelle to his chaumber goes, Her maydens followyng nye: 35"O well,"she sayth,"how doth my lord?" |
38037 | Has your wine barrels cast the girds, Or is your white bread gone? |
38037 | He never was the courteous knighte, To saye,"Faire maide, will ye ride?" |
38037 | Hee sayth,"seest thou yond water, Ellen, That flows from banke to brimme?" |
38037 | How can I come to thee? |
38037 | How can I come up? |
38037 | How dares thou stand to speak to me? |
38037 | How often is the renowned Arthur, in such exhibitions, obliged to exclaim,"O Jhesu, what knight is that arrayed all in grene( or as the case may be)? |
38037 | It has been suggested to the editor that the author of the poem seems to have had in his eye the story of Gunhilda, who is sometimes called Eleanor(? |
38037 | O heard ye o''Sir James the Rose, The young heir o''Buleighan? |
38037 | O whare''s the lady o''this house, That ca''s me Lamkin?" |
38037 | O whatten a gift to my lemman Annie Will now by you be gi''en?" |
38037 | Of purple or of pall? |
38037 | Oh telle me how does thy ladye gaye, 15 And what may thy tydinges bee?" |
38037 | Or be you not within? |
38037 | Or came ye here to wiel''your brand, Upo''the braes o''Yarrow?" |
38037 | Or come ye here to wield your brand, On the dowie houms of Yarrow?" |
38037 | Or had you ever a sister dear, Or had you ever a brother?" |
38037 | Or hae ye onie corn? |
38037 | Or hae ye onie education, To dance alang wi''me?" |
38037 | Or hae ye onie gerss growin''? |
38037 | Or hath he took thy gaye gold ring From off thy finger small?" |
38037 | Or is any of thy good friends dead, That thou shedst manye a teare? |
38037 | Or mourn ye for the southern lass, Whom ye may not win near?" |
38037 | Or sall I lat her be?" |
38037 | Or was ye gentle born? |
38037 | Or will I go to the gay green wood, 85 And hear the small birds sing?" |
38037 | Out then came the Jew''s daughter,--"Will ye come in and dine?" |
38037 | Page 303; lines 53, 54: added missing quotation marks("What ails the king at me,"he said,"What ails the king at me?") |
38037 | Shall I venture my body in field to fight With a man that''s faith and troth to me? |
38037 | She saw the flames ascending high, 105 The tears blinded her ee:"Where is the worthy knight,"she said,"Who is to fight for me?" |
38037 | She turn''d her right and round about, 25 Says,"Why take ye sic dreads o''me? |
38037 | Shee, all the long daye Childe Waters rode, 45 Ran barefoote by his syde, Yet was he never soe courteous a knighte, To say,"Ellen, will you ryde?" |
38037 | Than out and cam the Jewis dochter, 5 Said,"Will ye cum in and dine?" |
38037 | That lord is to Fair Annie gane: Says,"Annie, thou winsome may, O whatten a gude gift will ye gi''e 75 My bride on her bridal day?" |
38037 | The King sits in Dunfermline town, A- drinking at the wine; Says,"Where will I get a good skipper Will sail the saut seas fine?" |
38037 | The first water that they cam to, I think they call it Clyde, He saftly unto her did say,--"Lady Marg''ret, will ye ride?" |
38037 | The king he turned him round aboute, And in his heart was woe: 100"Is there never a knighte of my round table This matter will undergoe? |
38037 | The king sits in Dumferling[2] toune, Drinking the blude- reid wine:"O quhar will I get guid sailor, To sail this schip of mine?" |
38037 | The king sits in Dunfermline town, Drinking the blude- red wine:"O whare will I get a skeely skipper To sail this new ship of mine?" |
38037 | The lady she amazed was, To hear the villain speak; 70"Alas,"quoth she,"what shall I do? |
38037 | The one of them said to his mate,"Where shall we our breakefast take?" |
38037 | Then Christie Græme he stooped low Unto the ground, you shall understand;--"O father, put on your glove again, The wind has blown it from your hand?" |
38037 | Then down cam Queen Marie Wi''gold links in her hair, Saying,"Marie mild, where is the child, That I heard greet sair sair?" |
38037 | Then from the vault John Thomson came, Wringing his hands most piteouslie:"What would ye do,"the Turk he cried, 95"If ye had me as I hae thee?" |
38037 | Then out it spak the lady, 45 As she stood on the stair,"What ails my bairn, nourice, That he''s greeting sae sair? |
38037 | Then up and raise him, King Honour, Says--"What means a''this din? |
38037 | Whan he had got his wills o''her, 5 His will as he has tane;"Wad ye be sae gude and kind, As tell to me your name?" |
38037 | Whareto greets she sae sair?" |
38037 | When he came to my lady''s gate, 5 He tirled at the pin; And wha was sae ready as the lady hersell To open and let him in? |
38037 | Whether thou''s gotten thy deadly wound, Or if God and good leeching may succour thee?" |
38037 | Why make ye all this moan? |
38037 | You are both stark and stoor; Would you defile the King''s own bed, And make his Queen a whore? |
38037 | Young Waters came before the King, Fell low down on his knee; 50"Win up, win up, young Waters, What''s this I hear o''thee?" |
38037 | [ L30] 30 Then up and spoke the popinjay That sat upon the tree--"What hae ye done wi''Erl Richard? |
38037 | [ L32] And that beheard his deare master As he stood at his garden pale: Sayes,"Ever alacke, my litle foot- page, 35 What causes thee to wail? |

45242 | Have not I no clergymen? 45242 How far are you going this way?" |
45242 | If that service ye now do want, What station will ye be? 45242 Is this the Duke o''Albany, Or James, the Scottish king? |

39627 | 80"Schall y haff yowr forty shillings,"seyde Lytel John,"Or ye, master, schall haffe myne?" |
39627 | 80"What be your nam[e]s?" |
39627 | And of every handfull that he met He lept ouer fotes thre: 290"What devilkyns draper,"sayd litell Much,"Thynkyst thou to be?" |
39627 | And out then spake her White Lilly; 45"My sister, we''ll be gane: Why suld we stay in Barnisdale, To mourn our bour within?" |
39627 | And what do these names prove? |
39627 | And when he came bold Robin before, Robin askt him courteously, 30"O hast thou any money to spare For my merry men and me?" |
39627 | Anone then sayd good Robyn, 85 To that lady fre,"What man hath your lorde itake?" |
39627 | Are all these traditions absolute fictions, and is he himself a pure creation of the imagination? |
39627 | At last hee spy''d him in a park, Hunting then of the deer;"What knave is that,"quoth Robin Hood, 115"That doth come mee so near?" |
39627 | But am not I a jolly fryer? |
39627 | Did e''er ye see me in that place A''e foot my ground to flee? |

39627 | How dare you stop my valour''s prize? |
39627 | How haffe yow solde yowr war?" |

39627 | In what countre were thou born,[L19] And where is thy wonnynge wane? |
39627 | Is it not possible that this name reappears again in the"Young Gamwell"of_ Robin Hood and the Stranger_? |
39627 | Is not this a holy worde for a frere? |
39627 | Is there any of my mery men all That dare be so bolde To make the potter paie passage, Either silver or golde? |
39627 | Is there any of my mery men all, That to that frere wyll go, And bryng hym to me forth withall, Whether he wyll or no? |
39627 | Johan sayd,"What greveth the? |
39627 | John, by me thou settest noe store, And that I farley finde: How offt send I my men beffore, And tarry my selfe behinde? |
39627 | Kind gentlemen, will you be patient awhile? |
39627 | Let me se, are thy pottes hole and sounde? |
39627 | Lyttle John, where art thou? |
39627 | Lytyll Johan let it lye full styll, And went to his mayster full lowe: 170"What tydynge, Johan?" |
39627 | Might not the ballads under consideration have a basis in the exploits of a real person, living in the forests,_ somewhere_ and at_ some time_? |
39627 | O wha will be my bouer- woman, Whan that sad time draws near? |
39627 | O whither, fair lady, away?" |
39627 | Or by my yellow hair? |
39627 | Or by the paps on my breast bane? |
39627 | Or do you weep for your maidenhead, That is taken from your body?" |
39627 | Or gat ye e''er an angry word, That ye ran awa frae me?" |
39627 | Or have they robbèd any virgin, 15 Or with other men''s wives have lain?" |
39627 | Or kent ye by my milk- white breast, Ye never yet saw bare?" |
39627 | Or tell to me where dost thou fare?" |
39627 | Or want ye as muckle o''dear bought luve As your heart can conteen?" |
39627 | Or why do you kill the kings ven''son, When your company is so few?" |
39627 | Or will ye gae to the gude greenwood, Where ye will not be seen?" |
39627 | Or with other mens wives have lain?" |
39627 | Rejecting, then, as nugatory every attempt to assign Robin Hood a definite position in history, what view shall we adopt? |
39627 | Said Robin Hood,"Lady fair, whither away? |
39627 | Shall I be thy true love?" |
39627 | Tell me as I do stand; What hast thou to do with my bag and bottle? |
39627 | The ussher sayed,"Yemen, what wold ye haue? |
39627 | Then out bespake the King again,-- 185"My boy, now tell to me, Who dwells into yon bigly bour, Beneath yon green aik tree?" |
39627 | Then some would leape, and some would runne, 5 And some would use artillery;"Which of you can a good bow draw, A good archer for to be? |
39627 | There sate a yeoman by his side,"Tell mee, sweet page,"said hee, 30"What is thy businesse and thy cause, So far in the north countrey?" |

41298 | ''And art thou dead, thou gentle youth And art thou dead and gone; And didst thou die for love of me? |
41298 | ''And art thou dead, thou much lov''d youth, And didst thou die for me? |
41298 | ''And by the brook, and in the glade, Are all our wanderings o''er? |
41298 | ''And has he left his birds and flowers, And must I call in vain? |
41298 | ''And how should I know your true- love From many another one?'' |
41298 | ''And shall I now, for fear of death, Look wan and be dismayed? |
41298 | ''And what penance will ye drie for that? |
41298 | ''And what will you do with your towers and your hall? |

41298 | ''We all must die,''said brave Sir Charles;''Of that I''m not afraid; What boots to live a little space? |
41298 | ''We all must die,''said brave Sir Charles;''What boots it how or when? |
41298 | ''Who makes the bridal bed, Birdie, say truly?'' |
41298 | ''Why lingereth she to clothe her heart with love, Delaying as the tender ash delays To clothe herself, when all the woods are green? |
41298 | ''Will you come home, my dear?'' |
41298 | ''You drank of the Well I warrant betimes?'' |
41298 | ''You say that two at Conway dwell, And two are gone to sea, Yet ye are seven!--I pray you tell, Sweet maid, how this may be?'' |

41298 | And what penance will ye drie for that? |
41298 | And what shoulder, and what art Could twist the sinews of thy heart? |
41298 | And what will you do with your towers and your hall? |
41298 | And what will you leave to your bairns and your wife? |
41298 | And what will you leave to your own mother dear? |
41298 | And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand form''d thy dread feet? |
41298 | And where is the bosom friend, dearer than all? |
41298 | And why daur ye nae mair weel be seen Pu''ing the birks on the Braes of Yarrow? |

41298 | And will I hear him speak? |
41298 | And will I see his face again? |
41298 | And will he not come again? |
41298 | And will he not come again? |
41298 | And, through the long, long summer hours, Will he not come again? |

41298 | Are Erin''s sons so good or so cold, As not to be tempted by woman or gold?'' |

41298 | Be she with that goodness blest Which may gain her name of best, If she be not such to me, What care I how good she be? |
41298 | Bright jewels of the mine? |
41298 | But many a trusty friend have I, And why should I feel dole or care? |
41298 | But shall I go mourn for that, my dear? |

22223 | Shall a woman''s virtues move Me to perish for her love? |
22223 | Should my heart be griev''d or pin''d''Cause I see a woman kind? |
22223 | Sisters and brothers, little maid, How many may you be?'' |
22223 | So daring in love, and so dauntless in war, Have ye e''er heard of gallant like young Lochinvar? |
22223 | So haggard and so woe- begone? |
22223 | Speak, whimp''ring younglings, and make known The reason why Ye droop and weep; Is it for want of sleep, Or childish lullaby? |
22223 | Suppose, oh, suppose that your Highland lad should die? |
22223 | Swimm''st thou in wealth, yet sink''st in thine own tears? |
22223 | THE BLUE BELL OF SCOTLAND OH where, and oh where, is your Highland laddie gone? |
22223 | THE TIGER TIGER, tiger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? |
22223 | TO BLOSSOMS FAIR pledges of a fruitful tree, Why do you fall so fast? |
22223 | TO PRIMROSES, FILLED WITH MORNING DEW WHY do ye weep, sweet babes? |
22223 | Tell me, ye jovial sailors, tell me true, Does my sweet William sail among your crew?'' |
22223 | That, without my consent, do chase And kill my fallow deer?'' |
22223 | The Queen was then at Tilbury, What could we more desire a? |
22223 | The calender, amazed to see His neighbour in such trim, Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate, And thus accosted him:''What news? |
22223 | The first o''them was clad in yellow:''O fair May, will ye be my marrow?'' |
22223 | The niest o''them was clad i''ried: O fair May, will ye be my bride?'' |
22223 | The same fond mother bent at night O''er each fair sleeping brow, She had each folded flower in sight, Where are those dreamers now? |
22223 | The thrid o''them was clad i''green: He said,''O fair May, will ye be my queen?'' |
22223 | The wealth of seas? |
22223 | Then came out the dusty mouse, I am lady of this house; Hast thou any mind of me? |
22223 | Then since all nature joins In this love without alloy, O''wha wad prove a traitor To nature''s dearest joy? |
22223 | Then wherefore, in these merry days, Should we, I pray, be duller? |
22223 | There came a burst of thunder sound-- The boy-- oh, where was he? |
22223 | There were men with hoary hair Amidst that pilgrim band: Why had they come to wither there, Away from their childhood''s land? |
22223 | They name thee before me, A knell to mine ear; A shudder comes o''er me Why wert thou so dear? |
22223 | They''re bonnie fish and halesome farin''; Wha''ll buy my caller herrin'', New drawn frae the Forth? |
22223 | They''re bonnie fish and halesome farin''Wha''ll buy my caller herrin'', New drawn frae the Forth? |
22223 | Thou smilest, but thou dost not speak, And then the tears run down my cheek, Oriana: What wantest thou? |
22223 | Though other''s purses be more fat, Why should we pine or grieve at that? |
22223 | Thus let me hold thee to my heart, And every care resign; And shall we never, never part, My life-- my all that''s mine? |
22223 | WE ARE SEVEN A SIMPLE child That lightly draws its breath, And feels its life in every limb, What should it know of death? |

35402 | Hast thou forgotten ere I forget? |
35402 | Hast thou left upon earth a believer If these men are dead? |
35402 | Hast thou not given me above all that live Joy, and a little sorrow shalt not give? |
35402 | Hast thou the heart? |
35402 | Hast thou told all thy secrets the last time, And bared all thy beauties to one? |
35402 | Hath he not sent us hunger? |
35402 | Have the high gods anything left to give, Save dust and laurels and gold and sand? |
35402 | Have they boiled my maid in a brass pan, And built a gallows to hang my man?" |
35402 | Have they hewn my son for beasts to eat, And my wife''s body for beasts''meat? |
35402 | Have we not lips to love with, eyes for tears, And summer and flower of women and of years? |
35402 | He hath bound them: shall he break the tether? |
35402 | He hath rent them: shall he bind together? |
35402 | He hath slain them: shall he bid them live? |

35402 | I have passed from the outermost portal To the shrine where a sin is a prayer; What care though the service be mortal? |
35402 | I never shall tell you on earth; and in heaven, If I cry to you then, will you hear or know? |
35402 | I said,"Bethink yourself how love Fared in us twain, what either did; Shall I unclothe my soul thereof? |
35402 | I would I had been the first that took her death Out from between wet hoofs and reddened teeth, Splashed horns, fierce fetlocks of the brother bull? |
35402 | I would the sea had hidden us, the fire( Wilt thou fear that, and fear not my desire?) |
35402 | III Love, is it love or sleep or shadow or light That lies between thine eyelids and thine eyes? |
35402 | ITYLUS Swallow, my sister, O sister swallow, How can thine heart be full of the spring? |
35402 | Is it not past? |
35402 | Is it worth a tear, is it worth an hour, To think of things that are well outworn? |
35402 | Is joy thy dower or grief, White rose of weary leaf, Late rose whose life is brief, whose loves are light? |
35402 | Is not his incense bitterness, his meat Murder? |
35402 | Is the breath of them hot in thy hair? |
35402 | Is there place in the land of your labour, Is there room in your world of delight, Where change has not sorrow for neighbour And day has not night? |
35402 | KING DAVID Lord God, alas, what shall I sain? |

35402 | LOVE AT SEA We are in love''s land to- day; Where shall we go? |
35402 | Laugh or groan, Doth heaven remurmur and repeat Sad sounds or sweet? |
35402 | Lay not thine hand upon me; let me go; Take off thine eyes that put the gods to shame; What, wilt thou turn my loathing to thy death? |
35402 | Let us go seaward as the great winds go, Full of blown sand and foam; what help is here? |
35402 | Lo, do I crave so much? |
35402 | Lo, for no noise or light of thunder Shall these grave- clothes be rent in sunder; He that hath taken, shall he give? |
35402 | Lo, what hath he seen or known, Of the way and the wave Unbeholden, unsailed on, unsown, From the breast to the grave? |
35402 | Lo, what thing have ye found endure? |
35402 | Love, shall we start or stay, Or sail or row? |
35402 | Man, what have I to do with shame or thee? |
35402 | More than these wilt thou give, things fairer than all these things? |
35402 | Nay, fair Lord Christ, lift up thine eyes and see; Had now thy mother such a lip-- like this? |
35402 | Nay, if death be not, how shall they be? |
35402 | Nay, is there help in heaven? |
35402 | Nay, sweet, for is she God alone? |
35402 | Nay, though I might, Would I change my sweet one love with a word? |
35402 | Nay, what have I said? |
35402 | Nay, where the heart of wrath is broken, Where long love ends as a thing spoken, How shall thy crying enter there? |
35402 | O fools and blind, what seek ye there, High up in the air? |
35402 | O love, O lover, loose or hold me fast, I had thee first, whoever have thee last; Fairer or not, what need I know, what care? |
35402 | O my fair lord, I charge you leave me this: Is it not sweeter than a foolish kiss? |
35402 | O nursed in airs apart, O poet highest of heart, Hast thou seen time, who hast seen so many things? |
35402 | O our Lady of Torture, what care? |
35402 | O queen, take heed of words; Why wilt thou eat the husk of evil speech? |
35402 | O swallow, sister, O fair swift swallow, Why wilt thou fly after spring to the south, The soft south whither thine heart is set? |
35402 | O where have ye been the morn sae late? |
35402 | Of fruitless husk and fugitive flower, The dream foregone and the deed forborne? |
35402 | On fields of strange men''s feet, Or fields near home? |
35402 | Or did God mean To scourge with scorpions for a rod Our sins, Faustine? |
35402 | Or what thing have ye found on high Past the blind sky? |
35402 | Or what, Faustine? |
35402 | Or where have ye made your bearing- bed, To bear a son in the sides of Tyne?" |
35402 | Or where the fire- flowers blow, Or where the flowers of snow Or flowers of foam? |
35402 | RONDEL These many years since we began to be, What have the gods done with us? |
35402 | Rest, and be glad of the gods; but I, How shall I praise them, or how take rest? |
35402 | SEVENTH ANTIPHONE Wilt thou bring fine gold for a payment For sins on this wise? |
35402 | Shall God make a pact with thee, till his hook be found in thy sides? |
35402 | Shall not the grief of the old time follow? |
35402 | Shall not the song thereof cleave to thy mouth? |
35402 | Shall one shed tears or fall to laughter, At sight of all these poor old dead? |
35402 | Shall one so chafe that hath such little bones? |
35402 | Shall such an one lend love or borrow? |
35402 | Shall these be sorry for thy sorrow? |
35402 | Shall these give thanks for words or breath? |
35402 | Shall this be a small thing in thine eyes, That is greater in mine than the whole great sea?'' |
35402 | Shall this dust gather flesh hereafter? |
35402 | Shall we not laugh, shall we not weep, Not we, though this be as it is? |
35402 | Shame may do most where fear is found most weak; That which for shame''s sake yet I have not done, Shall it be done for fear''s? |
35402 | She is right fair; what hath she done to thee? |
35402 | Sin, is it sin whereby men''s souls are thrust Into the pit? |
35402 | Sister, my sister, O soft light swallow, Though all things feast in the spring''s guest- chamber, How hast thou heart to be glad thereof yet? |
35402 | Sleep were no sweeter than her face to me, Sleep of cold sea- bloom under the cold sea; What pain could get between my face and hers? |
35402 | Sleep, is it sleep perchance that covers Each face, as each face were his lover''s? |
35402 | Sleep, shall we sleep after all? |
35402 | Sleep; what hast thou to do with her? |
35402 | Sweet, does death hurt? |
35402 | THE BLOODY SON( FINNISH)"O where have ye been the morn sae late, My merry son, come tell me hither? |
35402 | The dead man answered thus:"What good gift shall God give us?" |
35402 | The dead man asked of them:"Is the green land stained brown with flame? |
35402 | The eyes that weep, with the mouth that sings?" |
35402 | The first board spake and said:"Is it best eating flesh or bread?" |
35402 | The gulf is strait, but deep enough; Who shall recross, who among men Shall cross again? |
35402 | The hands that cling and the feet that follow, The voice of the child''s blood crying yet_ Who hath remembered me? |
35402 | The hopes that hurt and the dreams that hover, Shall they not vanish away and apart? |
35402 | The second answered it:"Is wine or honey the more sweet?" |
35402 | The son of grief begot by joy? |
35402 | The third board spake and said:"Is red gold worth a girl''s gold head?" |
35402 | The woven web that was plain to follow, The small slain body, the flowerlike face, Can I remember if thou forget? |
35402 | There is a god about me like as fire, Sprung whence, who knoweth, or who hath heart to say? |
35402 | There''s many a wind and way, And never a May but May; We are in love''s hand to- day; Where shall we go? |
35402 | They shall pass, and shalt thou not be shaken? |
35402 | They shall perish, and shalt thou endure? |
35402 | Thou knowest what hath been, knowest thou what shall be? |
35402 | Thou, first of men and friend, Seest thou, even thou, the end? |
35402 | Thy lord the summer is good to follow, And fair the feet of thy lover the spring: But what wilt thou say to the spring thy lover? |
35402 | Thy sweet low bosom, thy close hair, Thy strait soft flanks and slenderer feet, Thy virginal strange air, Are these not over fair For Love to greet? |
35402 | Time found our tired love sleeping, And kissed away his breath; But what should we do weeping, Though light love sleep to death? |
35402 | Times unforgotten, and treasures of things? |
35402 | To what strange end hath some strange god made fair The double blossom of two fruitless flowers? |
35402 | Unless, perhaps, white death had kissed me there, Kissing her hair? |
35402 | Was it myrtle or poppy thy garland was woven with, O my Dolores? |
35402 | Was it pallor of slumber, or blush as of blood, that I found in thee fair? |
35402 | Was life worth living then? |
35402 | Was mine not too? |
35402 | We are in love''s land to- day-- Where shall we land you, sweet? |
35402 | We twain once well in sunder, What will the mad gods do For hate with me, I wonder, Or what for love with you? |
35402 | Wert thou pure and a maiden, Dolores, When desire took thee first by the throat? |
35402 | What adders came to shed their coats? |
35402 | What ailed us, O gods, to desert you For creeds that refuse and restrain? |
35402 | What aileth thee, wilt thou do services? |
35402 | What ails us to fear overmeasure, To praise thee with timorous breath, O mistress and mother of pleasure, The one thing as certain as death? |
35402 | What am I, that my lips do thee wrong? |
35402 | What broke off the garlands that girt you? |
35402 | What bud was the shell of a blossom That all men may smell to and pluck? |
35402 | What coiled obscene Small serpents with soft stretching throats Caressed Faustine? |
35402 | What colour burning man''s wide- open eye But may be pleasurably seen? |
35402 | What flower of kisses without fruit Of love, Faustine? |
35402 | What hast thou found in the spring to follow? |
35402 | What hast thou found in thine heart to sing? |
35402 | What hope, what light, Falls from the farthest starriest way On you that pray? |
35402 | What is time, that his children should face thee? |
35402 | What milk fed thee first at what bosom? |
35402 | What new sweet thing would love not relish worse? |
35402 | What new work wilt thou find for thy lover, What new passions for daytime or night? |
35402 | What pain, established in so sweet a place, But the plucked leaf of it smells fragrantly? |
35402 | What shall I say? |
35402 | What shall be said? |
35402 | What sins gave thee suck? |
35402 | What spells that they know not a word of Whose lives are as leaves overblown? |
35402 | What sterile growths of sexless root Or epicene? |
35402 | What sundered you spirit and clay? |
35402 | What tortures undreamt of, unheard of, Unwritten, unknown? |
35402 | What was the song I made of you Here where the grass forgets our feet As afternoon forgets the dew? |
35402 | What wilt thou do when the summer is shed? |
35402 | What wilt thou do? |
35402 | When have they heard us? |
35402 | When shall feathers be as lead? |
35402 | When shall stanes in the sea swim? |
35402 | When shall the sunrise on the north side be? |
35402 | Where are the imperial years? |
35402 | Where are they, Cotytto or Venus, Astarte or Ashtaroth, where? |
35402 | Where in this world is room enough for pain?" |
35402 | Where, when the gods would be cruel, Do they go for a torture? |
35402 | Who are we that embalm and embrace thee With spices and savours of song? |
35402 | Who gave thee thy wisdom? |
35402 | Who has known all the evil before us, Or the tyrannous secrets of time? |
35402 | Who hath known the ways and the wrath, The sleepless spirit, the root And blossom of evil will, The divine device of a god? |
35402 | Who hath known, who knoweth, O gods? |
35402 | Who knows what word were best to say? |
35402 | Who shall behold it or hath? |
35402 | Who shall give sorrow enough, Or who the abundance of tears? |
35402 | Who shall kiss, in thy father''s own city, With such lips as he sang with, again? |
35402 | Who shall turn on fate? |
35402 | Why am I fair at all before thee, why At all desired? |
35402 | Why hath he made us? |
35402 | Why is your coat sae fouled the day? |
35402 | Why will ye weep? |
35402 | Why wilt thou follow lesser loves? |
35402 | Will not God do right? |
35402 | Will they solace you wholly, the days that were? |
35402 | Will they tie the winds in a tether, Put a bit in the jaws of the sea? |
35402 | Will ye beat always at the gate, Ye fools of fate? |
35402 | Will ye bridle the deep sea with reins, will ye chasten the high sea with rods? |
35402 | Will ye take her to chain her with chains, who is older than all ye Gods? |
35402 | Will you forget as I forgot? |
35402 | Will you lift up your eyes between sadness and bliss, Meet mine, and see where the great love is, And tremble and turn and be changed? |
35402 | Wilt thou judge thy people now, O king that wast found most wise? |
35402 | Wilt thou lie any more, O thou whose mouth is emptied of lies? |
35402 | Wilt thou put back the time of the sea, or the place of the season of tides? |
35402 | Wilt thou smile as a woman disdaining The light fire in the veins of a boy? |
35402 | Wilt thou yet take all, Galilean? |
35402 | With her, my love, with her have they done well? |
35402 | With the sweet of the sins of old ages Wilt thou satiate thy soul as of yore? |
35402 | Would I have you change now, change at a blow, Startled and stricken, awake and aware? |
35402 | Would I lose you now? |
35402 | Would I not hurt thee perfectly? |
35402 | Would I not plague thee dying overmuch? |
35402 | Ye are fallen, our lords, by what token? |
35402 | Ye fools; for which among you deems His prayer can alter green to red Or stones to bread? |
35402 | Yea, is not even Apollo, with hair and harpstring of gold, A bitter God to follow, a beautiful God to behold? |
35402 | Yea, what if dried- up stems wax red and green, Shall that thing be which is not nor has been? |
35402 | Yea, what if sapless bark wax green and white, Shall any good fruit grow upon my sin? |
35402 | Yea, with thy sweet lips, with thy sweet sword; yea, Take life and all, for I will die, I say; Love, I gave love, is life a better boon? |
35402 | Your soul forgot her joys, forgot Her times of teen; Yea, this life likewise will you not Forget, Faustine? |
35402 | _ Imitated from Théophile Gautier._ APRIL FROM THE FRENCH OF THE VIDAME DE CHARTRES 12--? |
35402 | and how Are you Faustine? |
35402 | and now Is life worth sin? |

35402 | did he laugh? |
35402 | does he know it, Now he lies out of reach, out of breath, Thy prophet, thy preacher, thy poet, Sin''s child by incestuous Death? |
35402 | filled with thirst Their lips who cried unto him? |
35402 | his hidden face and iron feet Hath not man known, and felt them on their way Threaten and trample all things and every day? |
35402 | in the night Have ye found comfort? |
35402 | is it all past over? |
35402 | is it hither to me, O my sweet? |
35402 | not touch Thy pores of sense with torture, and make bright Thine eyes with bloodlike tears and grievous light? |
35402 | or by day Have ye seen gods? |
35402 | or when, Having given us love, hast thou taken away? |
35402 | what do ye weeping? |
35402 | what new name, Fit to move all men''s hearts, could move Thee, deaf to love or shame, Love''s sister, by the same Mother as Love? |
35402 | what sense Keeps in its hot sharp extreme violence No savour of sweet things? |
35402 | what shall be said of thee? |
35402 | what stories That stung thee, what visions that smote? |
35402 | what with me, What with my love? |
35402 | when have I done you wrong, Living? |
35402 | where Plant thorns, set pain like a jewel? |
35402 | who had guessed You loved me best? |
35402 | who hath cursed Spirit and flesh with longing? |
35402 | who hath forgotten?_ Thou hast forgotten, O summer swallow, But the world shall end when I forget. |
35402 | who hath known Their faces, climbed unto their feet, Felt them and found them? |
35402 | who shall see her dead? |
35402 | who shall tell Sweet things or sad, such things as no man hears? |
35402 | wilt thou be worse than death? |
35402 | would I take you then, If I lose you now that my heart has need? |
