'Tis not the lily-brow I prize	483
'Tis sweet to him who all the week	314
'Tis the middle of night by the castle clock	215
'Tis true, Idoloclastes Satyrane	413
To be ruled like a Frenchman the Briton is both	[953]
To know, to esteem, to love,—and then to part	410
To praise men as good, and to take them for such	486
To tempt the dangerous deep, too venturous youth	2
To wed a fool, I really cannot see	[963]
Tom Hill, who laughs at Cares and Woes	[974]
Tom Slothful talks, as slothful Tom beseems	[967]
Tranquillity! thou better name	360
Trōchĕe trīps frŏm long tŏ shōrt	401
Truth I pursued, as Fancy sketch'd the way	[1008]
'Twas my last waking thought, how it could be	454
'Twas not a mist, nor was it quite a cloud	[1000]
'Twas sweet to know it only possible	[992]
Two things hast thou made known to half the nation	[964]
Two wedded hearts, if ere were such	[1003]

Unboastful Bard! whose verse concise yet clear	102
Unchanged within, to see all changed without	459
Under the arms of a goodly oak-tree	[1048]
Under this stone does Walter Harcourt lie	[962]
Underneath an old oak tree	169
Ungrateful he, who pluck'd thee from thy stalk	70
Unperishing youth	308
Up, up! ye dames, and lasses gay	427
Up, up! ye dames, ye lasses gay	[942]
Upon the mountain's edge with light touch resting	393
Utter the song, O my soul! the flight and return of Mohammed	329

Verse, a breeze mid blossoms straying	439
Verse, pictures, music, thoughts both grave and gay	482
Verse, that Breeze mid blossoms straying	[1085]
Virtues and Woes alike too great for man	37
Vivit sed mihi non vivit—nova forte marita	56

Water and windmills, greenness, Islets green	[1009]
We both attended the same College	[955]
We pledged our hearts, my love and I	391
Well! If the Bard was weather-wise, who made	362, [1076]
Well, they are gone, and here must I remain	178
We've conquer'd us a Peace, like lads true metalled	[972]
We've fought for Peace, and conquer'd it at last	[972]
What a spring-tide of Love to dear friends in a shoal	[1010]
What boots to tell how o'er his grave	[1011]
What is an Epigram? a dwarfish whole	[963]
What never is, but only is to be	[999]
What now, O Man! thou dost or mean'st to do	414
What pleasures shall he ever find	4
What though the chilly wide-mouth'd quacking chorus	476
Whate'er thou giv'st, it still is sweet to me	[1010]
When British Freedom for an happier land	79
When Hope but made Tranquillity be felt	[1004]
When Surface talks of other people's worth	[969]
When the squalls were flitting and fleering	[980]
When they did greet me father, sudden awe	152
When thieves come, I bark: when gallants, I am still	[966]
When thou to my true-love com'st	326
When thy Beauty appears	[1016]
When Youth his faery reign began	62
Whene'er the mist, that stands 'twixt God and thee	487
Where Cam his stealthy flowings most dissembles	[988]
Where deep in mud Cam rolls his slumbrous stream	35
Where graced with many a classic spoil	29
Where is the grave of Sir Arthur O'Kellyn	432
Where true Love burns Desire is love's pure flame	485
Where'er I find the Good, the True, the Fair	[1011]
Wherefore art thou come?	[989]
While my young cheek retains its healthful hues	236
Whilst pale Anxiety, corrosive Care	69
Whom should I choose for my Judge?	[1000]
Whom the untaught Shepherds call	40
Why is my Love like the Sun?	[1109]
Why need I say, Louisa dear	252
William, my teacher, my friend	304
Wisdom, Mother of retired Thought	[991]
With Donne, whose muse on dromedary trots	433
With many a pause and oft reverted eye	94
With many a weary step at length I gain	56
With secret hand heal the conjectur'd wound	[988]
With skill that never Alchemist yet told	[995]
Within these circling hollies woodbine-clad	409
Within these wilds was Anna wont to rove	16

Ye Clouds! that far above me float and pause	243
Ye drinkers of Stingo and Nappy so free	[978]
Ye fowls of ill presage	[1017]
Ye Gales, that of the Lark's repose	35
Ye harp-controlling hymns	[1006]
Ye souls unus'd to lofty verse	8
Yes, noble old Warrior! this heart has beat high	317
Yes, yes! that boon, life's richest treat	466
Yet art thou happier far than she	62
Yon row of bleak and visionary pines	[1006]
You're careful o'er your wealth 'tis true	[958]
You come from o'er the waters	[987]
You loved the daughter of Don Manrique?	421
You mould my Hopes, you fashion me within	[1002]
Your Poem must eternal be	[959]
