2831How much is in yonder other courser?"
2831I pray you tell to me; You might thus make officers shent, Good sirs, of whence be ye?"

2831John said,"What grieveth thee?
2831Lo here we have the King- es seal; What, lourdain, art thou wood?"
2831My 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?
2831Now tell me what art thou?"
2831O see ye nat what I see?
2831O, will ye gae wi''me and see?"
2831Or any room at your feet?
2831Or any room at your side, Willie, Wherein that I may creep?"
2831Or is''t my brother John?
2831Or is''t my true love Willie, From Scotland new come home?"
2831Or why am I spared to cry,"Woe is me?"
2831Peter, Paul, or John?
2831Sa- y me now, wight young man, What is now thy name?
2831The first word the abbot spake,"Hast th- ou brought m- y pay?"
2831The 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?"
2831The usher said:"Yeomen, what would ye have?
2831Then bespake him Robin Hood, To that knight so free,"What need driveth thee to green wood?
2831What dost thou here,"said the abb- ot,"But thou hadst brought thy pay?"
2831What is in your coffers?"
2831What is thy name, fair maid?"
2831What rescues could ye find?
2831What tiding- es from Nottingham?
2831Why did you swear my eyes were bright, Yet leave those eyes to weep?
2831Why does your brand sae drop wi''bluid, And why sae sad gang ye, O?"
2831Why say ye so?
2831Why should ye nought?
2831Will you hear a Spanish lady, How she wooed an Englishman?
2831Wonning wan: where is thy, in what direction is thy home?
2831must I stay?"
2831said Rob- in,"Thereof will I right none; Weenest thou I will have God to borowe?
2831said Robin,"And these arrows i- feathered free?"
2831said the King,"And my Sheriff also?"
2831what have ye done?
2831what things are those?
2831where was he?
2831whither will ye go?
27129I have e''en great mind of thee?
27129My heart where have you laid? 27129 Our Lord which is the rat,""What shall we have to our supper?"
27129Three beans in a pound of butter?
27129Was Raleigh retired there,writes Mr. W. J. Linton(_ Rare Poems_, p. 257),"during some season of her displeasure?

27129''What though,''quoth he,''he madly did aspire And his great mind made him proud Fortune''s thrall?

27129A king?
27129Am I the worst of men?
27129And what news have you got, sir?
27129And wot you why?
27129Ay me, can every rumour Thus start my lady''s humour?
27129But I love and I love, and who thinks you?
27129Can I abide this prancing?
27129Can Love be rich, and yet I want?
27129Can a creature, so excelling, Harbour scorn in beauty''s dwelling, All kind pity thence expelling?
27129Can true love yield such delay, Converting joy to pain?
27129Canst thou love and burn out day?
27129Canst thou love and lie alone?
27129Dare you haunt our hallow''d green?
27129Do you not know how Love lost first his seeing?
27129Fair, I confess there''s pleasure in your sight; Sweet, you have power, I grant, of all delight; But what is all to me if I have none?
27129Fie then, why sit we musing, Youth''s sweet delight refusing?
27129Fire that must flame is with apt fuel fed, Flowers that will thrive in sunny soil are bred: How can a heart feel heat that no hope finds?
27129For who a sleeping lion dares provoke?
27129For why?
27129Had I her fast betwixt mine arms, Judge you that think such sports were harms; Were''t any harm?
27129Have I found her?
27129How shall I then describe my Love?
27129I asked you leave, you bade me love; is''t now a time to chide me?
27129I can not come every day to woo?"
27129I that loved and you that liked shall we begin to wrangle?
27129If I go abroad and late come in,--"Sir knave,"saith she,"Where have you been?"
27129If Love be just, then just is my desire; And if unjust, why is he call''d a God?
27129If all things life present, Why die my comforts then?
27129If my cares served her alone, Why is she thus untimely gone?
27129Is Love a boy,--what means he then to strike?
27129Is Love my judge, and yet am I condemned?
27129Is he a God,--why doth he men deride?
27129Is he a man,--why doth he hurt his like?
27129Is this fair excusing?

27129Kind in unkindness, when will you relent And cease with faint love true love to torment?
27129Lost is our freedom When we submit to women so: Why do we need''em When, in their best, they work our woe?
27129No I have no means of trying: If I should, yet at first sight She would answer with denying: What remains but only dying?
27129No, my sight is lost with eying: Shall I speak and beg relief?
27129No, my voice is hoarse with crying: What remains but only dying?
27129Now every tree renews his summer''s green, Why is your heart in winter''s garments clad?
27129Now what is love, I pray thee feign?
27129Now what is love, I pray thee say?
27129Now what is love, I pray thee show?
27129Now what is love, I pray thee tell?
27129O fools, can you not see a traffic nearer In my sweet lady''s face, where Nature showeth Whatever treasure eye sees or heart knoweth?
27129O say, alas, what moves thee To grieve him so that loves thee?
27129O say, dear life, when shall these twin- born berries, So lovely- ripe, by my rude lips be tasted?
27129O sweet, alas, what say you?
27129O then why Should she fly From him to whom her sight Doth add so much above her might?
27129O, Mistress, in thy sanctuary Why wouldst thou suffer cold disdain To use his frozen cruelty, And gentle pity to be slain?
27129O, did ever voice so sweet but only feign?
27129O, tell me, restless soul, what uncouth jar Doth cause in store such want, in peace such war?
27129O, why is the good of man with evil mixt?
27129On a time the amorous Silvy Said to her shepherd,''Sweet, how do you?
27129Or can he love on whom no comfort shines?
27129Or is he blind,--why will he be a guide?
27129Or vex her with unkindness?
27129Puddy came to the mouse''s wonne,''Mistress mouse, are you within?''
27129Robert Greene has a somewhat similar description of Love("What thing is Love?
27129Say, Joan, quoth John, what wilt thou do?
27129Shall I abide this jesting?
27129Shall I come, sweet Love, to thee When the evening beams are set?
27129Shall I laugh at her denying?
27129Shall I look to ease my grief?
27129Shall I not excluded be, Will you find no feignèd let?
27129Shall I not pluck( sweet, say not_ nay_) those cherries?
27129Shall I tempt her with delight?
27129Shall I then with patient mind Still attend her wayward pleasure?
27129Shall I try her thoughts and write?
27129Shall I turn her from her flying?
27129Shall I woo her in despight?
27129Shall a frown or angry eye, Shall a word unfitly placèd, Shall a shadow make me flie As if I were with tigers chasèd?
27129Shall we go dance the round, the round, Shall we go dance the round?
27129She whom then I lookèd on, My remembrance beautifying, Stays with me though I am gone, Gone and at her mercy lying: What remains but only dying?
27129Sleep is a reconciling, A rest that peace begets; Doth not the sun rise smiling When fair at ev''n he sets?
27129Sweet, stay awhile; why will you rise?
27129Tell me when wilt thou marry me, My corn and eke my calf and rents, My lands and all my tenements?
27129The love of change hath changed the world throughout, And what is counted good but that is strange?
27129The one of them said to his make[18]-- Where shall we our breakfast take?
27129The young nymphs all are wedded: Ah, then why do I tarry?
27129Then came out the dusty mouse:"I am Lady of this house: Hast thou any mind of me?"
27129Then, sweet, let us embrace and kiss: Shall beauty shale[16] upon the ground?
27129There is a look of him about this song, not unlike the lines to Cynthia; and what mistress but Majesty should appoint his place of retirement?
27129Think you to escape me now With slipp''ry words beguiling?
27129Think''st thou to seduce me then with words that have no meaning?
27129Think''st thou, Kate, to put me down With a''No''or with a frown?
27129This is my choice: for why?
27129Thus saith my Galatea: Love long hath been deluded, When shall it be concluded?
27129Weep you no more, sad fountains; What need you flow so fast?
27129Wha is''t that sits next the wa'', But Lady Mouse, baith jimp and sma''?
27129What dost thou serve?
27129What hast thou left wherewith to move my mind, What life to quicken dead desire?
27129What heart can not a modest beauty move?
27129What is her name who bears thy heart Within her breast?
27129What is our life?
27129What is''t that sits next the bride, But the sola puddy wi''his yellow side?
27129What search hath found a being, where I am not, if that thou be there?
27129What shall I do?
27129What then is love, sings Corydon, Since Phyllida is grown so coy?
27129What?
27129When did I err in blindness?
27129When he came to the merry mill- pin,--"Lady Mouse, been you within?"
27129When, when is''t, brother?
27129Wherefore did she thus inflame My desires heat my blood, Instantly to quench the same And starve whom she had given food?
27129Whither so fast?
27129Who be they?
27129Who can tell what thief or foe, In the covert of the night, For his prey will work my woe, Or through wicked foul despite?
27129Who seeing clear day once will dream of night?
27129Who would have thought of such a change?
27129Why are you Ladies staying, And your Lords gone a- maying?
27129Why have ye cast it forth as nothing worth, Without a tomb or grave?
27129Why should not she Still joy to reign in me?
27129Why suffers my content?
27129Yet what is love, I pray thee say?
27129You woods, in whom dear lovers oft have talked, How do you now a place of mourning prove?
27129_ Gillian._ For me?

19221Last night the gifted Seer did view A wet shroud swathed round lady gay; Then stay thee, Fair, in Ravensheuch; Why cross the gloomy firth to- day? 19221 Now who be ye, would cross Lochgyle This dark and stormy water?"
19221O came ye by yon water- side? 19221 O what can ail thee, knight- at- arms, Alone and palely loitering?
19221O what can ail thee, knight- at- arms, So haggard and so woe- begone? 19221 Our work,"said I,"was well begun; Then, from thy breast what thought, Beneath so beautiful a sun, So sad a sigh has brought?"

19221Be she meeker, kinder, than Turtle- dove or pelican, If she be not so to me, What care I how kind she be?
19221Be 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?
19221Being your slave what should I do but tend Upon the hours and times of your desire?
19221Bid us sigh on from day to day, And wish and wish the soul away; Till youth and genial years are flown, And all the life of life is gone?

19221But thou, O Hope, with eyes so fair, What was thy delighted measure?
19221But were there ever any Writhed not at passéd joy?
19221Can Honour''s voice provoke the silent dust, Or Flattery soothe the dull cold ear of Death?

19221For could I view nor them nor thee, What sight worth seeing could I see?
19221For ever, Fortune, wilt thou prove An unrelenting foe to Love, And when we meet a mutual heart Come in between, and bid us part?
19221For how do I hold thee but by thy granting?
19221Friend of my bosom, thou more than a brother, Why wert not thou born in my father''s dwelling?
19221Gem of the crimson- colour''d Even, Companion of retiring day, Why at the closing gates of heaven, Beloved Star, dost thou delay?
19221Had she a brother?
19221Had she a sister?
19221Have ye souls in heaven too, Doubled- lived in regions new?
19221Have ye tippled drink more fine Than mine host''s Canary wine?
19221Heard ye the din of battle bray, Lance to lance, and horse to horse?
19221His breath like caller air; His very foot has music in''t As he comes up the stair-- And will I see his face again?
19221How begot, how nourishéd?
19221How shall ever one like me Win thee back again?
19221I catch at them, and then I miss; Was ever darkness like to this?
19221I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then?
19221I fondly dream-- Had ye been there-- for what could that have done?
19221I love tranquil solitude, And such society As is quiet, wise, and good; Between thee and me What diff''rence?
19221If it be not, then love doth well denote, Love''s eye is not so true as all men''s: No, How can it?
19221If that be fair whereon my false eyes dote, What means the world to say it is not so?
19221If this belief from heaven be sent, If such be Nature''s holy plan, Have I not reason to lament What Man has made of Man?
19221In spots like these it is we prize Our memory, feel that she hath eyes: Then why should I be loth to stir?
19221Is the sable warrior fled?
19221Is there no debt to pay, no boon to grant?
19221Is this a time to think o''wark?
19221Is this that firm decree which all doth bind?
19221Is this the justice which on Earth we find?
19221Is thy love a plant Of such weak fibre that the treacherous air Of absence withers what was once so fair?
19221Is thy love a plant Why, Damon, with the forward day Why so pale and wan, fond lover?
19221It may be strange-- yet who would change Time''s course to lower speeding, When one by one our friends have gone And left our bosoms bleeding?
19221Loop up her tresses Escaped from the comb, Her fair auburn tresses; Whilst wonderment guesses Where was her home?
19221Love, faithful love recall''d thee to my mind-- But how could I forget thee?
19221Marti''mas wind, when wilt thou blaw And shake the green leaves aff the tree?
19221My heart it said nay; I look''d for Jamie back; But the wind it blew high, and the ship it was a wrack; His ship it was a wrack-- Why didna Jamie dee?
19221O Mary, canst thou wreck his peace Wha for thy sake wad gladly dee?
19221O Mistress mine, where are you roaming?
19221O gentle Death, when wilt thou come?
19221O how can love''s eye be true, That is so vex''d with watching and with tears?
19221O saw ye bonnie Lesley As she gaed o''er the border?
19221O wherefore should I busk my head?
19221O, Wind, If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?
19221On whose last steps I climb, Trembling at that where I had stood before; When will return the glory of your prime?
19221Or are fruits of Paradise Sweeter than those dainty pies Of Venison?
19221Or came you by yon meadow green, Or saw you my sweet Willie?"
19221Or canst thou break that heart of his, Whase only faut is loving thee?
19221Or her merit''s value known Make me quite forget my own?
19221Or if the grave be now thy bed, Why am I ignorant of the same That I may rest; and neither blame Nor sorrow may attend thy name?
19221Or make one mourner weep the less?
19221Or my cheeks make pale with care''Cause another''s rosy are?
19221Or start, ye demons of the midnight air, At shrieks and thunders louder than your own?
19221Or that thy sense shall ever meet The bean- flower''s deep- embosom''d sweet Exhaling with an evening blast?
19221Or was there a dearer one Still, and a nearer one Yet, than all other?
19221Or what strong hand can hold his swift foot back, Or who his spoil of beauty can forbid?
19221Or wherefore should I kame my hair?
19221Or while the wings aspire, are heart and eye Both with thy nest upon the dewy ground?
19221Or why do I live to cry, Wae''s me?
19221Or why should pride humility make thrall, And injuries the innocent oppress?
19221Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow For old, unhappy, far- off things, And battles long ago: Or is it some more humble lay, Familiar matter of to- day?
19221Pou''d you the rose or lily?
19221Prythee, why so mute?
19221Prythee, why so mute?
19221Prythee, why so pale?
19221Prythee, why so pale?
19221Riddle of destiny, who can show What thy short visit meant, or know What thy errand here below?
19221Say, has he given in vain the heavenly Muse?
19221Say, heavenly Muse, shall not thy sacred vein Afford a present to the Infant God?
19221Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness Shall I compare thee to a summer''s day?
19221Shall I compare thee to a summer''s day?
19221Shall I, wasting in despair, Die because a woman''s fair?
19221Shall Time''s best jewel from Time''s chest lie hid?
19221Shall a woman''s virtues move Me to perish for her love?
19221Shall my foolish heart be pined''Cause I see a woman kind; Or a well disposéd nature Joinéd with a lovely feature?
19221Shall we say, that Nature blind Check''d her hand, and changed her mind Just when she had exactly wrought A finish''d pattern without fault?
19221Shall worms, inheritors of this excess, Eat up thy charge?
19221Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain, That has been, and may be again?
19221Souls of Poets dead and gone What Elysium have ye known, Happy field or mossy cavern, Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern?
19221Souls of poets dead and gone What Elysium have ye known-- Happy field or mossy cavern-- Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern?
19221Swimm''st thou in wealth, yet sink''st in thine own tears?
19221Tell me where is Fancy bred, Or in the heart or in the head?
19221The captive linnet which enthral?
19221The lark, his lay who trill''d all day, Sits hush''d his partner nigh; Breeze, bird, and flower confess the hour, But where is County Guy?
19221The star of Love, all stars above, Now reigns o''er earth and sky, And high and low the influence know-- But where is County Guy?
19221The swarm that in thy noon- tide beam were born?
19221They name thee before me, A knell to mine ear; A shudder comes o''er me-- Why wert thou so dear?
19221This scrap of land he from the heath Enclosed when he was stronger; But what avails the land to them Which he can till no longer?
19221Thy brother Death came, and cried, Wouldst thou me?
19221Thy sweet child Sleep, the filmy- eyed, Murmur''d like a noon- tide bee Shall I nestle near thy side?
19221Time and chance are but a tide, Slighted love is sair to bide; Shall I, like a fool, quoth he, For a haughty hizzie dee?
19221Waking or asleep Thou of death must deem Things more true and deep Than we mortals dream, Or how could thy notes flow in such a crystal stream?
19221Were it not better done, as others use, To sport with Amaryllis in the shade, Or with the tangles of Neaera''s hair?
19221What are garlands and crowns to the brow that is wrinkled?
19221What cat''s averse to fish?
19221What do thy noontide walks avail, To clear the leaf, and pick the snail, Then wantonly to death decree An insect usefuller than thee?
19221What field of all the civil war Where his were not the deepest scar?
19221What fields, or waves, or mountains?
19221What hand but would a garland cull For thee who art so beautiful?
19221What idle progeny succeed To chase the rolling circle''s speed Or urge the flying ball?
19221What is love?
19221What love of thine own kind?
19221What need they?
19221What objects are the fountains Of thy happy strain?
19221What passion can not Music raise and quell?
19221What passion can not Music raise and quell?
19221What recks it them?
19221What shapes of sky or plain?
19221What strange disguise hast now put on To make believe that thou art gone?
19221What strings symphonious tremble in the air, What strains of vocal transport round her play?
19221What thou art we know not; What is most like thee?
19221What, were ye born to be An hour or half''s delight; And so to bid good- night?
19221When joys have lost their bloom and breath And life itself is vapid, Why, as we reach the Falls of Death, Feel we its tide more rapid?
19221When lovely woman stoops to folly And finds too late that men betray,-- What charm can soothe her melancholy, What art can wash her guilt away?
19221Where are the charms That sages have seen in thy face?
19221Where are the songs of Spring?
19221Where is it now, the glory and the dream?
19221Where is thy native simple heart Devote to Virtue, Fancy, Art?
19221Where shall the lover rest Whom the fates sever From his true maiden''s breast Parted for ever?
19221Where shall the traitor rest, He, the deceiver, Who would win maiden''s breast, Ruin, and leave her?
19221Where was it that the famous Flower Of Yarrow Vale lay bleeding?
19221Where were ye, Nymphs, when the remorseless deep Closed o''er the head of your loved Lycidas?
19221Where''s the eye, however blue, Doth not weary?
19221Where''s the face One would meet in every place?
19221Where''s the maid Whose lip mature is ever new?
19221Where''s the voice, however soft, One would hear so very oft?
19221Wherefore hast thou left me now Many a day and night?
19221Who hath not seen Thee oft amid thy store?
19221Who was her father?
19221Who was her mother?
19221Why so dull and mute, young sinner?
19221Why so large cost, having so short a lease, Dost thou upon thy fading mansion spend?
19221Why so pale and wan, fond lover?
19221Why then should I seek further store, And still make love anew?
19221Why weep ye by the tide, ladie?
19221Why weep ye by the tide?
19221Why, goddess, why, to us denied, Lay''st thou thy ancient lyre aside?
19221Will no one tell me what she sings?
19221Will, if looking well ca n''t move her, Looking ill prevail?
19221Will, when speaking well ca n''t win her, Saying nothing do''t?
19221Ye jades, lay by your wheel; Is this the time to spin a thread, When Colin''s at the door?
19221Yet whilst with sorrow here we live opprest, What life is best?
19221You talk of wondrous things you see, You say the sun shines bright; I feel him warm, but how can he Or make it day or night?
19221and what art thou?
19221become of me?
19221by any stealth: So do not let me wear to- night away: Without Thee what is all the morning''s wealth?
19221canst thou expect to see The downy peach make court to thee?
19221has she done this to thee?
19221if a Providence doth sway this all, Why should best minds groan under most distress?
19221is this thy body''s end?
19221let her loose; Everything is spoilt by use: Where''s the cheek that doth not fade, Too much gazed at?
19221list ye there To many a deep and dying groan?
19221shall I call thee bird, Or but a wandering Voice?
19221so pale, he knew her not, Though her smile on him was dwelling-- And am I then forgot-- forgot?
19221to Whom?
19221we know that tears are vain, That Death nor heeds nor hears distress: Will this unteach us to complain?
19221what art can teach, What human voice can reach The sacred organ''s praise?
19221what boots it with incessant care To tend the homely, slighted, shepherd''s trade And strictly meditate the thankless Muse?
19221what eyes hath love put in my head O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
19221what ignorance of pain?
19221what solemn scenes on Snowdon''s height Descending slow, their glittering skirts unroll?
19221where shall I my true- love find?
19221who bewailest The frailty of all things here, Why choose you the frailest For your cradle, your home, and your bier?
19221why should they know their fate, Since sorrow never comes too late, And happiness too swiftly flies?
19221why should we undo it?
22223Is it he?
22223Say quick,quoth he,"I bid thee say-- What manner of man art thou?"
22223''Ah, sweet Sir Charles, why wilt thou go Without thy loving wife?
22223''And art thou dead, thou much lov''d youth, And didst thou die for me?
22223''And by the brook, and in the glade, Are all our wanderings o''er?
22223''And has he left his birds and flowers, And must I call in vain?
22223''And how should I know your true- love From many another one?''
22223''And shall I now, for fear of death, Look wan and be dismayed?
22223''And what penance will ye drie for that?
22223''And what will you do with your towers and your hall?
22223''And what will you leave to your bairns and your wife?
22223''And what will you leave to your own mother dear?
22223''And where are they?
22223''And will he never come again?
22223''And wilt thou forsake thy pinder his craft, And live in the green wood with me?''
22223''Are those her ribs through which the Sun Did peer, as through a grate?
22223''Are ye out of your mind, my nurse, my nurse?''
22223''Before I saw the lightsome sun, This was appointed me; Shall mortal man repine or grudge What God ordains to be?
22223''But many a trusty friend have I, And why should I feel dole or care?
22223''But what good came of it at last?''
22223''By thy long grey beard and glittering eye, Now wherefore stopp''st thou me?
22223''Cause her fortune seems too high, Shall I play the fool and die?
22223''From better habitations spurned, Reluctant dost thou rove?
22223''Hast thou either meat or drink,''said Robin Hood,''For my merry men and me?''
22223''His horsemen hard behind us ride; Should they our steps discover, Then who will cheer my bonny bride When they have slain her lover?''
22223''How can I speak, how dare I speak, How can I speak to thee?
22223''How did I know that every dart That cut the airy way, Might not find passage to my heart, And close mine eyes for aye?
22223''How many are you, then,''said I,''If they two are in heaven?''
22223''How many?
22223''How oft in battle have I stood, When thousands died around; When smoking streams of crimson blood Imbrued the fattened ground?
22223''I have a spouse, go ask of her If I defiled her bed?
22223''In Lent, and on the holy eve, From flesh I did refrain; Why should I then appear dismayed To leave this world of pain?
22223''Lady, dost thou not fear to stray, So lone and lovely, through this bleak way?
22223''My gentle lad, what is''t you read-- Romance or fairy fable?
22223''Nay now, what faith?''
22223''Now art thou a bachelor, stranger?''
22223''Now, who be ye would cross Lochgyle, This dark and stormy water?''
22223''O wha is this has done this deed, And tauld the king o''me, To send us out at this time o''the year, To sail upon the sea?''
22223''Or has thy good woman, if one thou hast, Ever here in Cornwall been?
22223''Our joys as winged dreams do fly, Why then should sorrow last?
22223''Say why, my friend, thy honest soul Runs over at thine eye; Is it for my most welcome doom That thou dost child- like cry?''
22223''Say, were ye tired of godly peace, And godly Henry''s reign, That you did chop your easy days For those of blood and pain?
22223''Show me,''said he, whose men you be, That hunt so boldly here?
22223''Speak boldly, man,''said brave Sir Charles''What says the traitor- king?''
22223''Sweet Florence, why these briny tears?
22223''Tell me, thou bonny bird, When shall I marry me?''
22223''WHY does your brand so drop with blood?
22223''We all must die,''said brave Sir Charles, Of that I''m not afraid; What boots to live a little space?
22223''Who makes the bridal bed, Birdie, say truly?''
22223''Why lingereth she to clothe her heart with love, Delaying as the tender ash delays To clothe herself, when all the woods are green?
22223''Will you come home, my dear?''
22223''You drank of the Well I warrant betimes?''
22223''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?''
22223Ae stride or twa took the silly auld carle, An''a gude lang stride took he:''I trow thou to be a feck auld carle, Will ye shaw the way to me?''
22223And are those follies going?
22223And are ye sure he''s weel?
22223And art thou dead, thou gentle youth And art thou dead and gone; And didst thou die for love of me?
22223And is my proud heart growing Too cold or wise For brilliant eyes Again to set it glowing?
22223And is that Woman all her crew?
22223And warn from fight?
22223And was she nae very weel off, That was woo''d, and married, and a''?
22223And what do you carry there?''
22223And what penance will ye drie for that?
22223And what shoulder, and what art Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
22223And what will you do with your towers and your hall?
22223And what will you leave to your bairns and your wife?
22223And what will you leave to your own mother dear?
22223And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand form''d thy dread feet?
22223And where is the bosom friend, dearer than all?
22223And why daur ye nae mair weel be seen Pu''ing the birks on the Braes of Yarrow?
22223And why does thy nose look so blue?
22223And why so sad go ye, O?''
22223And why yon melancholious weids Hung on the bonny birks of Yarrow?
22223And will I hear him speak?
22223And will I see his face again?
22223And will he not come again?
22223And will he not come again?
22223And, through the long, long summer hours, Will he not come again?
22223And, to make sport, I puff and snort: And out the candles I do blow: The maids I kiss, They shriek-- Who''s this?
22223Are Erin''s sons so good or so cold, As not to be tempted by woman or gold?''
22223Are those her sails that glance in the Sun, Like restless gossameres?"
22223Art thou rich, yet is thy mind perplex''d?
22223Ask me no more: what answer should I give?
22223Away went Gilpin-- who but he?
22223Be she fairer than the day, Or the flow''ry meads in May, If she be not so to me, What care I how fair she be?
22223Be she meeker, kinder than Turtle- dove or pelican, If she be not so to me, What care I how kind she be?
22223Be 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?
22223Bright jewels of the mine?
22223But shall I go mourn for that, my dear?
22223But who the expected husband husband is?
22223But why do I talk of Death?
22223But wot you what?
22223But yet his horse was not a whit Inclined to tarry there; For why?
22223CALLER HERRIN''WHA''LL buy my caller herrin''?
22223Can silent glens have charms for thee, The lowly cot and russet gown?
22223Can tears Speak grief in you, Who were but born Just as the modest morn Teemed her refreshing dew?
22223Canst drink the waters of the crisped spring?
22223Canst hear,''said one,''the breakers roar?
22223Did God smile his work to see?
22223Did He who made the lamb make thee?
22223Did I not warn thee, not to, not to luve?
22223Dost thou laugh to see how fools are vex''d To add to golden numbers, golden numbers?
22223EDWARD GRAY SWEET Emma Moreland of yonder town Met me walking on yonder way,''And have you lost your heart?''
22223Edward?
22223Flows Yarrow sweet?
22223Fond done, done fond, Was this King Priam''s joy?
22223For can it be a_ ship_ that comes onward without wind or tide?]
22223For why?
22223For why?
22223From the fiends, that plague thee thus!-- Why look''st thou so?''
22223Gin a body meet a body Comin''thro''the glen, Gin a body kiss a body Need the warld ken?
22223Gin a body meet a body-- Comin''thro''the rye; Gin a body kiss a body-- Need a body cry?
22223He call''d aloud--''Say, father, say If yet my task is done?''
22223His rising cares the hermit spied, With answering care opprest:''And whence, unhappy youth,''he cried,''The sorrows of thy breast?
22223How can I busk a bonny bonny bride?
22223How can I busk a winsome marrow?
22223How could I look upon the day?
22223How could I rise and come away, Oriana?
22223How luve him on the banks of Tweed, That slew my luve on the Braes of Yarrow?
22223I can not play alone; The summer comes with flower and bee-- Where is my brother gone?
22223I hear you say, farewell: Nay, nay, We depart not so soon, Why say ye so?
22223I wad do-- what wad I not?
22223In there came old Alice the nurse, Said, Who was this that went from thee?''
22223In what clothes, in what clothes is your Highland laddie clad?
22223In what distant deeps or skies Burnt the ardour of thine eyes?
22223Is DEATH that woman''s mate?"
22223Is she kind as she is fair?
22223Is that a DEATH?
22223Is this a time to think o''wark, When Colin''s at the door?
22223Is this a time to think o''wark?
22223Is this mine own countree?
22223Is this the hill?
22223Joys as winged dreams fly fast, Why should sadness longer last?

22223Last night the gifted Seer did view A wet shroud swathed round ladye gay; Then stay thee, Fair, in Ravensheuch; Why cross the gloomy firth to- day?
22223Let not the dark thee cumber; What though the moon does slumber?
22223Martinmas wind, when wilt thou blaw, And shake the green leaves off the tree?

22223My keg is but low, I confess, Gaffer Gray; What then?
22223My labour never flags; And what are its wages?
22223My luver''s blood is on thy spear How canst thou, barbarous man, then woo me?
22223Nay, but credit I''ve none, And my money''s all gone; Then say how may that come to pass?
22223Never again shall my brothers embrace me?
22223No longer drest in silken sheen, No longer deck''d with jewels rare,-- Say, canst thou quit each courtly scene, Where thou wert fairest of the fair?
22223Now nature cleeds the flowery lea, And a''is young and sweet like thee; O wilt thou share its joys wi''me, And say thou''lt be my dearie O?
22223O NANNY, wilt thou go with me, Nor sigh to leave the flaunting town?
22223O Nanny, canst thou love so true, Through perils keen with me to go, Or when thy swain mishap shall rue, To share with him the pang of woe?

22223O fickle Fortune, Why this cruel sporting?
22223O wha''s like my Johnny, Sae leith, sae blythe, sae bonny?

22223Of what is''t fools make such vain keeping?
22223Oh where, and oh where, does your Highland laddie dwell?
22223Oh, can that soft and gentle mien Extremes of hardship learn to bear, Nor sad, regret each courtly scene, Where thou wert fairest of the fair?
22223Oh, why still perplex us, poor sons of a day?
22223On what wings dare he aspire-- What the hand dare seize the fire?
22223On whose last steps I climb, Trembling at that where I had stood before; When will return the glory of your prime?
22223Or a well- disposed nature Joinèd with a lovely feature?
22223Or at the casement seen her stand?
22223Or brought a kiss From that sweet heart to this?

22223Or wherefore should I kame my hair?
22223Out spake the bride''s mither: What deil needs a''this pride?
22223Out upon the wharfs they came, Knight and burgher, lord and dame, And round the prow they read her name,_ The Lady of Shalott._ Who is this?
22223Prithee, why so mute?
22223Prithee, why so mute?
22223Prithee, why so pale?

22223SYLVIA WHO is Sylvia?
22223Said Lady Clare, that ye speak so wild?''
22223Say, canst thou face the parching ray, Nor shrink before the wintry wind?
22223Say, should disease or pain befall, Wilt thou assume the nurse''s care Nor wistful those gay scenes recall, Where thou wert fairest of the fair?
22223Shall I, like a fool, quoth he, For a haughty hizzie die?
22223Shall a woman''s virtues move Me to perish for her love?
22223Should my heart be griev''d or pin''d''Cause I see a woman kind?
22223Sisters and brothers, little maid, How many may you be?''
22223So daring in love, and so dauntless in war, Have ye e''er heard of gallant like young Lochinvar?
22223So haggard and so woe- begone?
22223Speak, whimp''ring younglings, and make known The reason why Ye droop and weep; Is it for want of sleep, Or childish lullaby?
22223Suppose, oh, suppose that your Highland lad should die?
22223Swimm''st thou in wealth, yet sink''st in thine own tears?
22223THE BLUE BELL OF SCOTLAND OH where, and oh where, is your Highland laddie gone?
22223THE TIGER TIGER, tiger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
22223TO BLOSSOMS FAIR pledges of a fruitful tree, Why do you fall so fast?
22223TO PRIMROSES, FILLED WITH MORNING DEW WHY do ye weep, sweet babes?
22223Tell me, ye jovial sailors, tell me true, Does my sweet William sail among your crew?''
22223That, without my consent, do chase And kill my fallow deer?''
22223The Queen was then at Tilbury, What could we more desire a?
22223The calender, amazed to see His neighbour in such trim, Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate, And thus accosted him:''What news?
22223The first o''them was clad in yellow:''O fair May, will ye be my marrow?''
22223The niest o''them was clad i''ried: O fair May, will ye be my bride?''
22223The same fond mother bent at night O''er each fair sleeping brow, She had each folded flower in sight, Where are those dreamers now?
22223The thrid o''them was clad i''green: He said,''O fair May, will ye be my queen?''
22223The wealth of seas?
22223Then came out the dusty mouse, I am lady of this house; Hast thou any mind of me?
22223Then since all nature joins In this love without alloy, O''wha wad prove a traitor To nature''s dearest joy?
22223Then wherefore, in these merry days, Should we, I pray, be duller?
22223There came a burst of thunder sound-- The boy-- oh, where was he?
22223There were men with hoary hair Amidst that pilgrim band: Why had they come to wither there, Away from their childhood''s land?
22223They name thee before me, A knell to mine ear; A shudder comes o''er me Why wert thou so dear?
22223They''re bonnie fish and halesome farin''; Wha''ll buy my caller herrin'', New drawn frae the Forth?
22223They''re bonnie fish and halesome farin''Wha''ll buy my caller herrin'', New drawn frae the Forth?
22223Thou smilest, but thou dost not speak, And then the tears run down my cheek, Oriana: What wantest thou?
22223Though other''s purses be more fat, Why should we pine or grieve at that?
22223Thus let me hold thee to my heart, And every care resign; And shall we never, never part, My life-- my all that''s mine?
22223WE ARE SEVEN A SIMPLE child That lightly draws its breath, And feels its life in every limb, What should it know of death?
22223WHY SO PALE AND WAN?
22223WHY so pale and wan, fond lover?
22223We all must die,''said brave Sir Charles;''What boots it how or when?
22223Wha can fill a coward''s grave?

22223When true hearts lie withered And fond ones are flown, Oh, who would inhabit This bleak world alone?
22223When will the dancers leave her alone?
22223When ye were sleepin''on your pillows, Dreamed ye aught o''our puir fellows, Darkling as they faced the billows, A''to fill the woven willows?
22223Where English cloth- yard arrows Killed the French like tame sparrows, Slain by our Bowmen?
22223Where are those lights so many and fair, That signal made but now?"

22223Who shall this marriage make?
22223Why come you drest like a village maid, That are the flower of the earth?''
22223Why does she weep, thy bonny bonny bride?

41298''And art thou dead, thou much lov''d youth, And didst thou die for me?

41298''His horsemen hard behind us ride; Should they our steps discover, Then who will cheer my bonny bride When they have slain her lover?''
41298''How can I speak, how dare I speak, How can I speak to thee?
41298''How did I know that every dart That cut the airy way, Might not find passage to my heart, And close mine eyes for aye?

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

41298And will he not come again?
41298And, through the long, long summer hours, Will he not come again?
41298And, to make sport, I puff and snort: And out the candles I do blow: The maids I kiss, They shriek-- Who''s this?
41298Are Erin''s sons so good or so cold, As not to be tempted by woman or gold?''
41298Are those her ribs through which the Sun Did peer, as through a grate?
41298Are those her sails that glance in the Sun, Like restless gossameres?
41298Art thou rich, yet is thy mind perplex''d?
41298Ask me no more: what answer should I give?
41298Away went Gilpin-- who but he?

41298Be she meeker, kinder than Turtle- dove or pelican, If she be not so to me, What care I how kind she be?
41298Be 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?
41298Bright jewels of the mine?
41298But many a trusty friend have I, And why should I feel dole or care?
41298But shall I go mourn for that, my dear?
41298But who the expected husband husband is?
