... Would the dress were done!Satin glows in candlelight- ...
The Second Oldest Story
... While I wash your wound with tears, ...
The Small Hours
... Oh, sad are winter nights, and slow ...
The Thin Edge
... . . I wonder what it's like in Spain ...
The Trifler
... Slow's the blood that was quick and stormy, ...
The Veteran
... "Come out, you dogs, and fight!" said I, ...
They Part
... And if, my friend, you'd have it end, ...
Thought For A Sunshiny Morning
... "Your clan will pay me back one day ...
Threnody
... Lips that taste of tears, they say, ...
To A Much Too Unfortunate Lady
... If your dreams were thread to weave ...
Tombstones in the Starlight
... III. The Very Rich ManHe'd have the best, and that was none too good ...
Two-Volume Novel
... The moon's turned black ...
Ultimatum
... Either you do or you don't!The table is ready, so lay your cards ...
Vers Demode
... The ripen'd vine, that beckons as it blows ...
Verse For a Certain Dog
... (God help you, if you break the goldfish bowl!)"Whatever is, is good" - your gracious creed ...
