Poems by Herman Melville
Chattanooga
... (November, 1863)A kindling impulse seized the host ...
Malvern Hill
... Ah wilds of woe!The spires of Richmond, late beheld ...
Falstaff's Lament Over Prince Hal Become Henry V
... I, Honest Jack!To bring down these grey hairs - ...
Gold in the Mountain
... And greed in the heart, ...
Art
... But form to lend, pulsed life create, ...
The Portent
... Shenandoah! But the streaming beard is shown ...
Misgivings
... The hemlock shakes in the rafter, the oak in the driving keel ...
Lines Traced Under An Image Of Amor Threatening
... Never, never Brave me, nor my fury tempt: ...
A Dirge For McPherson
... Bear him through the chapel-door - ...
Song Of Yoomy
... -- Departed the pride, and the glory of Mardi: ...
Duponts Round Fight (November, 1861)
... Nor less the Fleet that warred for Right, ...
Pebbles
... Is it the Dragon's heaven-challenging crest ...
Marlena
... 'Tis aye afternoon of the full, full moon, ...
A Meditation
... war, And fields in Mexico again fought o'er ...
Gold
... Gold-hunters' hearts with golden dreamings! ...
