Eight springs have flown since last I lay | E |
On sea ward Quantock's heathy hills | F |

You stood before me like a thought | J |
A dream remembered in a dream | K |

Has not Love's whisper evermore | H |
Been ceaseless as thy gentle roar | H |
Sole voice when other voices sleep | L |
Dear under song in clamor's hour | M |
