Ode to Sappho
Oh, grieve not, Ladies, if at night
Oh, I would have these tongues oracular
Oh! would I were as firm and cold
Old Time, thou’rt a sluggard; how long dost thou stay
O, my strong-minded sisters, aspiring to vote
On Being Brought from Africa to America
One lily scented all the dark. It grew
One Night
One Perfect Rose
One sweetly solemn thought
On Imagination
On our lone pathway bloomed no earthly hopes
On the Birth of Her Sister Margaret
On the Death of the Rev. Mr. George Whitefield—1770

O thorn-crowned Sorrow, pitiless and stern
Over the river, and through the wood
O wife, wife, wife! As if the sacred name

O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!
O yes, I love you, and with all my heart

The night was dark and fearful
There is no frigate like a book
There’s a certain slant of light
The rose just bursting into bloom
The sale began—young girls were there
The shell of objects inwardly consumed
The spicewood burns along the gray, spent sky
The sweetest notes among the human heart-strings
The twilight’s inner flame grows blue and deep
They tell me that I must not love
This is my letter to the world

We deemed the secret lost, the spirit gone
We, sighing, said, “Our Pan is dead
We took it to the woods, we two
What, can these dead bones live, whose sap is dried
What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why
What songs found voice upon those lips
When dreaming kings, at odds with swift-paced time
When I am dead and over me bright April
When I consider Life and its few years
When I go away from you
When I go back to earth
When the grass shall cover me
When the peach ripens to a rosy bloom
When Winter’s royal robes of white
Whirl up, sea
