_Tenebris_, 40
_That Hill_, 109
The baker’s boy delivers loaves, 58
The band of Gideon roam the sky, 103
The bitterness of days like these we know, 138
The breath of life imbued those few dim days, 70
The calabash wherein she served my food, 200
The calm, 151
The dandelion stares, 229
The day is a Negro, 129
The fruit of the orchard is over-ripe, Elaine, 169
The heart of a woman goes forth with the dawn, 81
The hills are wroth; the stones have scored, 165
The night is beautiful, 150
The night was made for rest and sleep, 142
Then the golden hour, 168
There is a coarseness, 214
There is a tree, by day, 40
There was a man, 11
The sass’fras tea is red and clear, 56
The sky hangs heavy tonight, 122
The sky, lazily disdaining to pursue, 95
The sky was blue, so blue that day, 45
The very acme of my woe, 76
They have dreamed as young men dream, 77
This is the debt I pay, 9
This lovely flower fell to seed, 186
Thou art not dead, although the spoiler’s hand, 123
Three students once tarried over the Rhine, 17
Through the pregnant universe, 84
Thunder of the Rain God, 152
Time sitting on the throne of Memory, 32
’Tis queer, it is, the ways to men, 39

_To a Certain Woman_, 178
_To a Dark Girl_, 157
_To an Icicle_, 110
_To a Persistent Phantom_, 113
_To a Young Girl Leaving the Hill Country_, 165
To climb a hill that hungers for the sky, 219
Today I saw a thing of arresting poignant beauty, 71
To fling my arms wide, 149
_To John Keats, Poet, at Springtime_, 184
_To Lovers of Earth: Fair Warning_, 182

Twin stars through my purpling pane, 46
Upstairs on the third floor, 221
_Walls of Jericho, The_, 106
Way down South in Dixie, 147
_Way-side Well, The_, 15
_Ways o’ Men, The_, 39
We are not come to wage a strife, 171
We ask for peace. We, at the bound, 38
WEEDEN, LULA LOWE, 225
Well, son, I’ll tell you, 151
Were you a leper bathed in wounds, 77
We shall not always plant while others reap, 183
_We Wear the Mask_, 8
_What Do I Care for Morning_, 216
_What Need Have I for Memory?_, 80
What! Roses growing in the meadow, 59
When face to face we stand, 43
When first you sang a song to me, 157
_When I am Dead_, 80
When I come down to sleep death’s endless night, 25
_When I Die_, 62
_When the Green Lies Over the Earth_, 41
When we count out our gold at the end of the day, 75
_White Witch, The_, 22

_Wild Roses_, 59
WILLIAMS, LUCY ARIEL, 201

Within a native hut, 197
_Words! Words!_, 65
_Yet Do I Marvel_, 182
You are disdainful and magnificent, 217
_Your Hands_, 44

Your words dropped into my heart, 91
You were a sophist, 156
