[section]
INVOCATION
[‘The sickle hath performed its work]
[‘Shepherd swains that feed your flocks]
FREE WILL AND FATE
[‘What is it rules thy singing season?]
[The lark confinèd in his cage]
[What ails you, Ocean, that nor near nor far]
[‘The smiling slopes with olive groves bedecked]
[‘Covet who will the patronage of Kings]
A BIRTHDAY PRESENT
AT HER GRAVE
[‘Roses crimson, roses white]
[‘Every wall is white with roses]
[‘Nay, let me sleep, or, best, be stone or steel]
[‘Know, Nature, like the cuckoo, laughs at law]
WHEN I AM GONE
[‘Father, farewell! Be not distressed]
GOOD-NIGHT!

[‘Father, farewell! Be not distressed]
‘Father, farewell! Be not distressed,
And take my vow, ere I depart,
To found a Convent in my breast,
And keep a cloister in my heart.’
