Poems by Paul Hamilton Hayne
An Hour Too Late
... That fate hath locked forever love's golden Eden gate ...
UndergroundA Fantasy
... Wherewith the brows of saints are crowned,-- ...
The Poets Trust In His Sorrow
... My lays, thank Heaven! are undefiled, ...
Poverty
... Broad-breasted, pearly-teethed, thy pure breath strayed, ...
The Three Copecks
... "You have given your tears," said the preacher, ...
Ariel
... Hearts whelmed in the tidal gold of her hair ...
Our Martrys
... Yet the shafts that have smitten the sorest, ...

... Vain is their cry, and worse than vain their pleading: ...
The Two Summers
... This passed, what more of life's brief path remains, ...

... While o'er thee flames through gain, through loss,-- ...
A New Philosophy; Or, Star Showers Explained
... And wished, as the flames waxed brighter, ...
The Snow-Messengers
... Speeds lightning-clear from thought's o'ershadowing cloud ...
The Stricken South To The North
... Throbbed with their first, mad, feverous pain no longer, ...
In The Porch
... And oft with half-closed eyelids, stretched at ease-- ...
Widderins Race. Australian.
... the vulture Followed their track, and a black smoke like hell's ...
