The ribs and terrors in the whale
... When I could scarce believe him mine, ...
Shiloh: A Requiem (April, 1862)
... Solaced the parched ones stretched in pain ...
In the Prison Pen
... Till forth from the throngs they bear him dead&mdash ...
Art
... But form to lend, pulsed life create, ...
Dupont’s Round Fight (November, 1861)
... Nor less the Fleet that warred for Right, ...
Misgivings
... The hemlock shakes in the rafter, the oak in the driving keel ...
The College Colonel
... But a remnant half-tattered, and battered, and worn, ...
The Berg (A Dream)
... Nor budge it, though the infatuate ship went down ...
Malvern Hill
... The battle-smoked flag, with stars eclipsed ...
Sheridan at Cedar Creek
... Wreathe the steed and lead him&mdash ...
The Bench of Boors
... overbright! Within low doors the boozy boors ...
Tom Deadlight (1810)
... ng rife, and now humming in the collapsing brain, attune the last flutterings of distempered thought ...
Greek Architecture
... the Site; Not innovating wilfulness, ...
The Portent
... Slowly swaying (such the law), ...
Monody
... And houseless there the snow-bird flits ...
