| Whose rare celestial stir | B |
| Evokes so sweet a Torment | G |
| Such sumptuous Despair | H |

| I would not talk like Cornets | I |
| I'd rather be the One | C |
| Raised softly to the Ceilings | I |
| And out and easy on | E |
| Through Villages of Ether | B |

| By but a lip of Metal | K |
| The pier to my Pontoon | J |

| Nor would I be a Poet | L |
| It's finer own the Ear | M |
| Enamored impotent content | G |
| The License to revere | N |
| A privilege so awful | K |
| What would the Dower be | D |
| Had I the Art to stun myself | O |
| With Bolts of Melody | D |
