| In the lazy Southern sun | B |
| I strolled with hands in pockets | C |
| Past the flower stalls one by one | B |
| - | |
| Indolent dreamy ready | D |
| For anything to amuse | E |
| Shyfoot out for a ramble | F |
| In his oldest hat and shoes | E |
| - | |
| Roses creamy and yellow | G |
| Azaleas crimson and white | H |
| And the flaky fresh carnations | I |
| My Orient of delight | H |
| - | |
| Masses and banks of blossom | J |
| That dazzle and summon the eye | K |
| Till the buyers are half bewildered | L |
| To know what they want Not I | K |
| - | |
| Who would not rather be artist | M |
| And slip through the crowd unseen | N |
| To gather it all in a picture | O |
| And guess what the faces mean | N |
| - | |
| So down through the chaffering darkies | I |
| I pass to the sidewalk's end | P |
| Through the smiling gingham bonnets | I |
| With their small farm stuff to vend | P |
| - | |
| When hello my dreamer sudden | B |
| As call at the dead of night | P |
| What sets your pulses a quiver | O |
| What sets your fancy alight | P |
| - | |
| Sure of it Mayflowers mayflowers | I |
| Scent of the North in spring | Q |
| Out in the vernal distance | I |
| Heart of me whither a wing | Q |
| - | |
| Give me some Clutch the first handful | R |
| Hungering rover of earth | S |
| How I devour and kiss them | T |
| Beauties that brought me to birth | S |
| - | |
| Away in the great north country | D |
| The land of the lonely sun | B |
| Where God has few for his fellows | I |
| And the wolves of the snowdrift run | B |
| - | |
| Once more to the frost bound valley | D |
| Comes April with rain in her jar | U |
| I can hear the vesper sparrow | G |
| Under the silver star | U |
| - | |
| And many and dear and gracious | I |
| Are the dreams that walk at my side | P |
| From the land of the lingering shadows | I |
| As out of the throng I stride | P |
| - | |
| Oh well for you mere onlooker | O |
| Who drift through the world's great mart | P |
| But we of the human sorrow | G |
| Have a joy beyond your art | P |
