With it all | B |
Sunny days or dreary | A |
How they pall | C |
Why should we be heroes | D |
Launa Dee | A |
Striving to no winning | E |

As in the beginning | E |
Let it be | A |

What good comes of toiling | E |
When all's done | F |
Frail green sprays for spoiling | E |
Of the sun | F |
Laurel leaf or myrtle | G |
Love or fame | H |
Ah what odds what spray sweet | I |
Time that makes life fertile | G |
Makes its blooms decay sweet | I |
As they came | H |
- | |
Lie here with me dreaming | E |
Cheek to cheek | J |
Lithe limbs twined and gleaming | E |
Brown and sleek | J |
Like two serpents coiling | J |
In their lair | K |
Where's the good of wreathing | J |
Sprays for Time's despoiling | J |
Let me feel your breathing | J |
In my hair | K |

You and I together | L |
Was it so | M |
In the August weather | L |
Long ago | M |
Did we kiss and fellow | M |
Side by side | N |
Till the sunbeams quickened | O |
From our stalks great yellow | M |
Sunflowers till we sickened | O |
There and died | N |

Were we tigers creeping | J |
Through the glade | P |
Where our prey lay sleeping | J |
Unafraid | P |
In some Eastern jungle | G |
Better so | M |
I am sure the snarling | J |
Beasts could never bungle | G |
Life as men do darling | J |
Who half know | M |
- | |
Ah if all of life love | Q |
Were the living | J |
Just to cease from strife love | Q |
And from grieving | J |
Let the swift world pass us | R |
You and me | A |
Stilled from all aspiring | J |
Sinai nor Parnassus | R |
Longer worth desiring | J |
Launa Dee | A |
- | |
Just to live like lilies | S |
In the lake | J |
Where no thought nor will is | T |
To mistake | J |
Just to lose the human | F |
Eyes that weep | U |
Just to cease from seeming | J |
Longer man and woman | F |
Just to reach the dreaming | J |
And the sleep | U |
