Poems by Eugene Field
Mortality
... Of us who are, O Nicias, mortal men! ...
The Tin Bank
... They hunted and searched and guessed and tried-- ...
The Preference Declared
... They can't be got at living prices! ...
Human Nature
... He let an earnest Thank ye drop ...
To His Lute
... His voice in Love's and Liber's praise ...
Googly-Goo
... And they dance their prettiest dances ...
Love Song--Heine
... Take these flowerets fair and frail, ...
The Two Coffins
... But the sword leaps not from that mildewed spot ...
To Ligurinus
... These words shall speak your spirits moody: ...
Horatian Lyrics Odes I, 11.
... Which on the crumbling rocks has dashed Etruscan seas ...
To Quintus Hirpinus
... Why, even flow'rs change with the hours, ...
Good-Bye--God Bless You!
... That's told "Good-by-God bless you!" ...
The Rock-A-By Lady
... Would you dream all these dreams that are tiny and fleet ...
Over the hills and far away
... Of wrongs o'erthrown and of great deeds done - ...
Clare Market
... For it's here that one sees all the objects that please-- ...
