ashamed; I cannot buy it — 'tis not sold; I cannot dance upon my Toes; I cannot

it, Sweet; I could not prove the Years had feet; I could suffice for Him, I
knew; I cried at Pity — not at Pain; I cross till I am weary; I did not reach
Thee; I died for Beauty — but was scarce; I do not care - why should I care; I
dreaded that first Robin, so; I dwell in Possibility; I envy Seas, whereon He

one is dead; I never hear the word escape; I never lost as much but twice; I
never saw a Moor; I never told the buried gold; I noticed People disappeared; I
often passed the village; I pay — in Satin Cash; I play at Riches — to appease;
I prayed, at first, a little Girl; I read my sentence — steadily; I reason,
Earth is short; I reckon — when I count it all; I robbed the Woods; I rose —
because He sank; I saw no Way — The Heavens were stitched; I saw that the Flake
was on it; I saw the wind within her; I see thee better — in the Dark; I see
thee clearer for the Grave; I send Two Sunsets; I send you a decrepit flower; I
shall keep singing!; I shall know why — when Time is over; I shall not murmur
if at last; I should have been too glad, I see; I should not dare to be so sad;
I should not dare to leave my friend; I showed her Heights she never saw; I
sing to use the Waiting; I sometimes drop it, for a Quick; I started Early —
Took my Dog; I stepped from Plank to Plank; I stole them from a Bee; I sued the
News — yet feared — the News; I suppose the time will come; I taste a liquor
never brewed; I tend my flowers for thee; I think I was enchanted; I think just
how my shape will rise; I think that the Root of the Wind is Water; I think the
Hemlock likes to stand; I think the longest Hour of all; I think to Live — may
be a Bliss; I thought that nature was enough; I thought the Train would never
come; I tie my Hat — I crease my Shawl; I took my Power in my Hand; I took one
Draught of Life; I tried to think a lonelier Thing; I want — it pleaded — All
its life; I was a Phoebe — nothing more; I was the slightest in the House; I
watched her face to see which way; I watched the Moon around the House; I went
to Heaven; I went to thank Her; I worked for chaff and earning Wheat; I would
distil a cup; I would not paint — a picture; I Years had been from Home; I'd
rather recollect a setting; I'll clutch — and clutch; I'll send the feather
from my Hat!; I'll tell you how the Sun rose; I'm ceded — I've stopped being
Theirs; I'm Nobody! Who are you?; I'm saying every day; I'm sorry for the Dead
— Today; I'm the little Heart's Ease!; I'm wife — I've finished that; I've
dropped my Brain — My Soul is numb; I've got an arrow here; I've heard an Organ
talk, sometimes; I've known a Heaven, like a Tent; I've none to tell me to but
Thee; I've nothing else — to bring, You know; I've seen a Dying Eye; Ideals are
the Fairly Oil; If all the griefs I am to have; If any sink, assure that this,
now standing; If anybody's friend be dead; If Blame be my side — forfeit Me; If
ever the lid gets off my head; If He dissolve — then; If He were living — dare
I ask; If I can stop one Heart from breaking; If I could bribe them by a Rose; If
I could tell how glad I was; If I may have it, when it's dead; If I should
cease to bring a Rose; If I should die; If I should see a single bird; If I
shouldn't be alive; If I'm lost — now; If it had no pencil; If my Bark sink; If
Nature smiles — the Mother must; If pain for peace prepares; If recollecting
were forgetting; If she had been the Mistletoe; If the foolish, call them
flowers; If this is fading; If those I loved were lost; If What we could — were
what we would; If wrecked upon the Shoal of Thought; If you were coming in the
Fall; If your Nerve, deny you; Image of Light, Adieu; Immortal is an ample word;
Immured in Heaven!; Impossibility, like Wine; In Ebon Box, when years have
flown; In falling Timbers buried; In lands I never saw — they say; In many and
reportless places; In rags mysterious as these; In snow thou comest; In the
name of the bee; In this short Life; In thy long Paradise of Light; In Winter
in my Room; Inconceivably solemn!; Incredible the Lodging; Is Bliss then, such
Abyss; Is Heaven a Physician?; Is Immortality a bane; Is it dead — Find it; Is
it too late to touch you, Dear?; Is it true, dear Sue?; It always felt to me —
a wrong; It bloomed and dropt, a Single Noon; It came at last but prompter
Death; It came his turn to beg; It can't be Summer!; It ceased to hurt me,
though so slow; It did not surprise me; It don't sound so terrible — quite — as
it did; It dropped so low — in my Regard; It feels a shame to be Alive; It is a
lonesome Glee; It is an honorable Thought; It is easy to work when the soul is
at play; It is the Meek that Valor wear; It knew no lapse, nor Diminuation —; It
knew no Medicine; It makes no difference abroad; It might be lonelier; It rises
— passes — on our South; It sifts from Leaden Sieves; It sounded as if the
Streets were running; It stole along so stealthy; It struck me — every Day; It
tossed — and tossed; It troubled me as once I was; It was a Grave, yet bore no
Stone; It was a quiet seeming Day; It was a quiet way; It was given to me by
the Gods; It was not Death, for I stood up; It was not Saint — it was too large;
It was too late for Man; It will be Summer — eventually; It would have starved
a Gnat; It would never be Common — more — I said; It would not know if it were
spurned; It's all I have to bring today; It's coming — the postponeless
Creature; It's easy to invent a Life; It's like the Light; It's such a little
thing to weep; It's thoughts — and just One Heart; Its Hour with itself; Its
little Ether Hood; Jesus! thy Crucifix; Joy to have merited the Pain; Judgment
is justest; Just as He spoke it from his Hands; Just lost, when I was saved!; Just
Once! Oh least Request!; Just so — Jesus — raps; Kill your Balm — and its Odors
bless you; Knock with tremor; Knows how to forget!; Lad of Athens, faithful be;
Lain in Nature — so suffice us; Lay this Laurel on the One; Least Bee that brew;
Least Rivers — docile to some sea; Left in immortal Youth; Lest any doubt that
we are glad that they were born Today; Lest they should come — is all my fear; Lest
this be Heaven indeed; Let down the Bars, Oh Death; Let me not mar that perfect
Dream; Let me not thirst with this Hock at my Lip; Let my first Knowing be of
thee; Let others - show this Surry's Grace; Let Us play Yesterday; Lethe in my
flower; Life — is what we make of it; Life is death we're lengthy at; Life, and
Death, and Giants; Lift it — with the Feathers; Light is sufficient to itself; Lightly
stepped a yellow star; Like Brooms of Steel; Like eyes that looked on Wastes; Like
Flowers, that heard the news of Dews; Like her the Saints retire; Like Men and
Women Shadows walk; Like Mighty Foot Lights — burned the Red; Like Rain it
sounded till it curved; Like Some Old fashioned Miracle; Like Time's insidious
wrinkle; Like Trains of Cars on Tracks of Plush; Lives he in any other world; Long
Years apart — can make no; Longing is like the Seed; Look back on Time, with
kindly eyes; Love — is anterior to Life; Love — is that later Thing than Death;

Love's begun; Love reckons by itself — alone; Love's stricken why; Low at my
problem bending; Luck is not chance; Make me a picture of the sun; Mama never
forgets her birds; Many a phrase has the English language; Many cross the Rhine;

divinest Sense; Musicians wrestle everywhere; Must be a Woe; Mute thy
Coronation; My best Acquaintances are those; My Cocoon tightens — Colors tease;
My country need not change her gown; My Eye is fuller than my vase; My Faith is
larger than the Hills; My first well Day — since many ill; My friend attacks my
friend!; My friend must be a Bird; My Garden — like the Beach; My God — He sees
thee; My Heart ran so to thee; My Heart upon a little Plate; My life closed
twice before its close; My Life had stood — a Loaded Gun; My Maker — let me be;
My nosegays are for Captives; My period had come for Prayer; My Portion is
Defeat — today; My Reward for Being, was This; My River runs to thee; My
Season's furthest Flower; My Soul — accused me — And I quailed; My Triumph
lasted till the Drums; My Wars are laid away in Books; My wheel is in the dark!;
My Worthiness is all my Doubt; Myself can read the Telegrams; Myself was formed
— a Carpenter; Nature — sometimes sears a Sapling; Nature — the Gentlest Mother
is; Nature affects to be sedate; Nature and God — I neither knew; Nature assigns
the Sun; Nature can do no more; Nature is what we see; Nature rarer uses Yellow;
Never for Society; New feet within my garden go; No Autumn's intercepting Chill;
No Bobolink — reverse His Singing; No Brigadier throughout the Year; No Crowd
that has occurred; No ladder needs the bird but skies; No Life can pompless
pass away; No Man can compass a Despair; No man saw awe, nor to his house; No
matter — now — Sweet; No matter where the Saints abide; No Notice gave She, but
a Change; No Other can reduce; No Passenger was known to flee; No Prisoner be; No
Rack can torture me; No Romance sold unto; No Rose, yet felt myself a'bloom; Nobody
knows this little Rose; None can experience sting; None who saw it ever told it;
