On Retirement
... Mere cankers of the heart!Vain, foolish man! how vast thy pride, ...
The Wild Honey-Suckle
... They died--nor were those flowers more gay, ...
The Indian Burying Ground
... The children of the forest play'd!There oft a restless Indian queen ...
On a Honey Bee
... And your grave will be this glass of wine, ...
On The Death Of Dr. Benjamin Franklin
... Philosopher, 'tis hard to part!-- When monarchs tumble to the ground, ...
To the Memory of the Brave Americans
... who fell in the action of September 8, 1781AT Eutaw Springs the valiant died ...
Ode
... Laughs at them all!Though hosts of slaves conspire ...
On the Universality and Other Attributes of the God of Nature
... A moment from the works He made:His system fixed on general laws ...
The Republican Genius of Europe
... With eyes of fire, he looks then through, ...
To A New England Poet
... From marble halls, where lawyers plead, ...
The Vernal Age
... The murmuring of the western gale,Have lost their charms!--the blooms are gone! ...
Song of Thyrsis
... I would advise you -- and you might -- ...
On the Ruins of a Country Inn
... Might yet have spared these mouldering walls, ...
To Mr. Blanchard, the Celebrated Aeronaut in America
... Where nature has more finely wrought,Her Chrystal spheres, her heavens serene ...
The American Soldier
... ‘Tis his from dear bought peace no wealth to win, ...
