A SONG OF DAWN.

A SONG IN SADNESS.

THE LOST CHILD.

FOREST-POOL.

ON THE SEUFZERS-BANK.

LONELY FLOWERS.

FOLKSONG AT SUNSET.

BY THE SCHLUCHSEE.

FOREST MYSTERY.

SWALLOW FLIGHT.

EVENING PRIMROSE.

THE CHRIST OF THE TITI-SEE.

A DREAM OF JUDGMENT.

THE MODERN GETHSEMANE.

FOREST-POOL.

I.

Is there a thing more sweet
Than thus to sit—my feet
Deep in this forest-pool,
So clear, and ah! so cool,
Hid from the sun-sick noon?
