Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

A

A Sensitive Plant in a garden grew

B

Beside the dimness of the glimmering sea

C

Come hither, my sweet Rosalind

E

Earth, Ocean, Air, belovèd brotherhood!

F

For your letter, dear

H

Here I sit with my paper, my pen and my ink

How wonderful is Death

I

I arise from dreams of thee

I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers

I sate beside the steersman then, and gazing

I weep for Adonais—he is dead!

N

Now the last day of many days

O

O thou, who plumed with strong desire

O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn’s being

One word is too often profaned

Over the utmost hill at length I sped

S

Shall we roam, my love

She saw me not--she heard me not--alone

So now my summer-task is ended, Mary

So we sate joyous as the morning ray

Swiftly walk over the western wave

T

Tell me, thou Star, whose wings of light

That night we anchored in a woody bay

The fountains mingle with the river

The old man took the oars, and soon the bark

The serpent is shut out from Paradise

The star-light smile of children, the sweet looks

The sun is warm, the sky is clear

The transport of a fierce and monstrous gladness

There is no danger to a man that knows

They die—the dead return not—Misery

W

Was there a human spirit in the steed

What thoughts had sway o’er Cythna’s lonely slumber

When the last hope of trampled France had failed

Whose is the love that, gleaming through the world
