- "Dost thou look back on what hath been"
- "Sweet soul, do with me as thou wilt"

- "When on my bed the moonlight falls"
- "When in the down I sink my head"
- "I dream'd there would be Spring no more"
- "I cannot see the features right"
- "Sleep, kinsman thou to death and trance"
- "Risest thou thus, dim dawn, again"
- "So many worlds, so much to do"
- "As sometimes in a dead man's face"
- "I leave thy praises unexpress'd"
- "Take wings of fancy, and ascend"
- "What hope is here for modern rhyme"
- "Again at Christmas did we weave"
- "'More than my brothers are to me'?"

- "I wage not any feud with Death"
- "Dip down upon the northern shore"
- "When I contemplate all alone"

- "Sweet after showers, ambrosial air"
- "I past beside the reverend walls"
- "Wild bird, whose warble, liquid sweet"
- "Witch-elms that counterchange the floor"
- "He tasted love with half his mind"
- "When rosy plumelets tuft the larch"
- "If any vision should reveal"
- "I shall not see thee. Dare I say"
- "How pure at heart and sound in head"
- "By night we linger'd on the lawn"
- "You say, but with no touch of scorn"
- "My love has talk'd with rocks and trees"
- "You leave us: you will see the Rhine"
- "Risest thou thus, dim dawn, again"
- "I climb the hill: from end to end"
- "Unwatch'd, the garden bough shall sway"
- "We leave the well-beloved place"
- "On that last night before we went"
- "The time draws near the birth of Christ"
- "To-night ungather'd let us leave"
- "Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky"
- "It is the day when he was born"
- "I will not shut me from my kind"
- "Heart-affluence in discursive talk"
- "Thy converse drew us with delight"
- "The churl in spirit, up or down"
- "High wisdom holds my wisdom less"
- "'Tis held that sorrow makes us wise"
- "Who loves not Knowledge? Who shall rail"
- "Now fades the last long streak of snow"
- "Is it, then, regret for buried time"
- "O days and hours, your work is this"
- "Contemplate all this work of Time"
- "Doors, where my heart was used to beat"
- "I trust I have not wasted breath"
- "Sad Hesper o'er the buried sun"
- "Oh, wast thou with me, dearest, then"
- "There rolls the deep where grew the tree"
- "That which we dare invoke to bless"
- "Whatever I have said or sung"
- "Love is and was my Lord and King"
- "And all is well, tho' faith and form"
- "The love that rose on stronger wings"
- "Dear friend, far off, my lost desire"
- "Thy voice is on the rolling air"
- "O living will that shalt endure"
