| Pretty Maid July | B |
| I would swear one day ago | C |
| She passed by | B |
| I would swear that I do know | C |
| The blue bliss of her eye | B |
| 'Tarry maid maid ' I bid her | A |
| But she hastened by | B |
| Do you know where she has hid her | A |
| Maid July | B |
| - | |
| Yet in truth it needs must be | D |
| The flight of her is old | E |
| Yet in truth it needs must be | D |
| For her nest the earth is cold | E |
| No more in the pool ed Even | F |
| Wade her rosy feet | G |
| Dawn flakes no more plash from them | H |
| To poppies 'mid the wheat | G |
| She has muddied the day's oozes | I |
| With her petulant feet | G |
| Scared the clouds that floated | J |
| As sea birds they were | A |
| Slow on the coerule | B |
| Lulls of the air | K |
| Lulled on the luminous | L |
| Levels of air | K |
| She has chidden in a pet | M |
| All her stars from her | A |
| Now they wander loose and sigh | B |
| Through the turbid blue | B |
| Now they wander weep and cry | B |
| Yea and I too | B |
| 'Where are you sweet July | B |
| Where are you ' | - |
| - | |
| Who hath beheld her footprints | N |
| Or the pathway she goes | O |
| Tell me wind tell me wheat | G |
| Which of you knows | O |
| Sleeps she swathed in the flushed Arctic | P |
| Night of the rose | O |
| Or lie her limbs like Alp glow | B |
| On the lily's snows | O |
| Gales that are all visitant | G |
| Find the runaway | Q |
| And for him who findeth her | A |
| I do charge you say | Q |
| I will throw largesse of broom | R |
| Of this summer's mintage | S |
| I will broach a honey bag | T |
| Of the bee's best vintage | U |
| Breezes wheat flowers sweet | G |
| None of them knows | O |
| How then shall we lure her back | V |
| From the way she goes | O |
| For it were a shameful thing | W |
| Saw we not this comer | A |
| Ere Autumn camp upon the fields | X |
| Red with rout of Summer | A |
| - | |
| When the bird quits the cage | Y |
| We set the cage outside | G |
| With seed and with water | A |
| And the door wide | G |
| Haply we may win it so | B |
| Back to abide | G |
| Hang her cage of earth out | G |
| O'er Heaven's sunward wall | B |
| Its four gates open winds in watch | Z |
| By rein ed cars at all | B |
| Relume in hanging hedgerows | B |
| The rain quenched blossom | A2 |
| And roses sob their tears out | G |
| On the gale's warm heaving bosom | A2 |
| Shake the lilies till their scent | G |
| Over drip their rims | B |
| That our runaway may see | B |
| We do know her whims | B |
| Sleek the tumbled waters out | G |
| For her travelled limbs | B |
| Strew and smoothe blue night thereon | B2 |
| There will O not doubt her | A |
| The lovely sleepy lady lie | B |
| With all her stars about her | A |
