OH! AM I NOT A LOVER STILL.
  
THE BRIDEMAID.
  
THE VACANT CHAIR.
  
'TWAS THE LONG EXPECTED SIGNAL!
  
PLACE THE LAMP IN YOUR CASEMENT.
  
OH! TALK NO MORE OF SORROW PAST.
  
IT IS NO HOME FOR ME.
  
FLY AWAY SORROW!
  
THE BOLD BUCCANEER.
  
I'VE SOUGHT HIM IN THE SILENT GROVE.
  
NAPLES IS EVER JOYOUS AND GAY.
  
SEE THE SAIL SPREADING.
  
FLY AWAY PRETTY MOTH.
  
LOVE IN A COTTAGE FOR ME.
  
SUMMER AND WINTER.
  
WHEN THE MOON SHINES BRIGHTLY.
  
THOU ART THAT ONE.
  
SAY NOT YOU LOVE ME.
  
OH! WHY DOES HE STAY.
  
THE CIRCASSIAN.
  
THE BOWER.
  
WE HAVE LOVED.
  
THOSE HAPPY DAYS.
  
I'LL COME AGAIN TO THEE.
  
I'VE THE KINDEST OF WELCOMES FOR THEE.
  
I WILL BE KIND TO YOU.
  
I HAVE SEEN YOU, THOUGH UNSEEN.
  
I WILL NOT SIGH FOR THEE.
  
NO, NE'ER CAN THY HOME BE MINE!
  
I WOULD BEAR AS MUCH FOR YOU.
  
HOW TO BE MORE FIRMLY TRUE.
  
I'LL SHED NO TEAR FOR THEE.
  
IN THE SUNNY DAYS DAYS OF LIFE.
  
MY STEED IS AT THE GATE.
  
OLD AGE SITS BENT ON HIS IRON-GRAY STEED.
  
THE SON OF A SOLDIER A SOLDIER MUST BE.
  
YOU KNOW WE WERE HAPPY.
  
SHE WAS THE FAIREST.
  
OH! MINE WAS NOT THE SUDDEN LOVE.
  
ITALY! BEAUTIFUL LAND!
  
OH! WOULD I WERE UPON THE DECK.
  
THE REJECTED!
  
THE ACCEPTED.
  
TAKE, TAKE ONCE MORE THY SILV'RY LUTE.
  
OH! I COME NOT TO UPBRAID THEE.
  
THE BATTLE IS FOUGHT.
  
THE OCEAN IS CALM.
  
SUCH TEARS ARE BLISS.
  
OH! ASK ME NOT TO BE YOUR BRIDE.
  
I WILL LISTEN.
  
MY HARP OF SIGHS.
  
MY HARP OF SMILES.
  
DECK NOT WITH GEMS.
  
THE LOVE-KNOT.
  
A FEATHER IN MY CAP.
  
CHARITY.
  
CAN WE BELIEVE THIS WORLD OF OURS.
  
A SOLITARY GRIEF.
  
THE BEST WISH.
  
GRIEF WAS SENT THEE FOR THY GOOD.
  
VIRTUE AND ERROR.
  
YOU NEVER KNEW ANNETTE.
  
SUCH THINGS WERE.
  
THE MONKEY JACKET.
  
WITH BEATING HEART AND TREMBLING STEP.
  
THE BLACK-BALL'D MAN.
  
OH! HOW BLEST THE LOVER.
  
DEARER THAN LIFE THOU ART.
  
NO VESSEL IS IN SIGHT.
  
HAPPY FACES!
  
I CANNOT DANCE TO-NIGHT!
  
I GAVE YOU MY HEART.
  
I'LL LIVE ON THE SMILES.
  
THE FRIENDS WHO SMILE NO MORE.
  
THE BIRTH OF A SMILE.
  
THE TWO WEDDINGS.
  
THE SONG OF MY CHOICE.
  
CAN YOU NAME HER NOW SO LIGHTLY!
  
WILLIAM AND ADELAIDE.
  
AND HAVE I LIVED TO HEAR THEE BLAME.
  
HE LOVES ME NOT WITH THAT FOND LOVE.
  
'TIS WHEN NO TRIFLER LINGERS.
  
WHEN I MEAN TO DEPART.
