- Ah, that Time could touch a form
- All things can tempt me from this craft of verse

- Fascination of what’s difficult, The
- He said we might choose the subject for the lesson
- Hope that you may understand!
- How should the world be luckier if this house
- If any man drew near
- If you have revisited the town, thin Shade
- I had this thought awhile ago
- Indignant at the fumbling wits, the obscure spite
- I made my song a coat
- I swayed upon the gaudy stern

- What need you, being come to sense
- What’s riches to him
- Where, where but here have Pride and Truth
- While I, from that reed-throated whisperer
- Why should I blame her that she filled my days
- Wine comes in at the mouth
- Would it were anything but merely voice!
- You gave but will not give again
- You say, as I have often given tongue
