INDEX OF FIRST LINES

Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase).

About Yule, when the wind blew cool,

A chieftain to the Highlands bound .
Adieu, adieu! my native shore

A good sword and a trusty hand!
Allen-a-Dale has no fagot for burning,

An ancient story I'll tell you anon

Announced by all the trumpets of the sky,

[merged small][merged small][ocr errors]

Behold, the Lord God will come with a strong hand,

Between the dark and the daylight

"Bunches of grapes," says Timothy,

By the flow of the inland river,

Come, dear children, let us away;

Dainty little maiden, whither would you wander?

Dance to the beat of the rain, little Fern, .

Gin a body meet a body,

66 Give me of your bark, O Birch Tree! .

Half a league, half a league,

I wander'd lonely as a cloud

It was a tall young oysterman lived by the riverside,

It was Earl Haldan's daughter

It was the time when lilies blow

I wish I were where Helen lies!

Jog on, jog on the footpath way, .

John Gilpin was a citizen

King Canute was weary-hearted

[ocr errors]

King Francis was a hearty king, and loved a royal sport,

Listen, my children, and you shall hear

Lord Lovel was standing at his stable door

Oh, Falmouth is a fine town with ships in the bay,

"Oh, hush thee, my babie, thy sire was a knight,
Oh! 'tis weary enough abroad to bide,

Oh, young Lochinvar is come out of the west
Our band is few, but true and tried, .

Proud Maisie is in the wood

Ring, sing! ring, sing! pleasant Sabbath bells!

Robins in the tree-top

So nigh is grandeur to our dust

"So the foemen have fired the gate, men of mine; Spring, the sweet Spring, is the year's pleasant-king The air for the wing of the sparrow

The Hag is astride,

The heavens declare the glory of God;

The hunt is up, the hunt is up,

The king sits in Dunfermline town,
The mountain and the squirrel

There came a ghost to Margaret's door

There came a youth upon the earth .

There chanced to be a peddler bold,

There lived a wife at Usher's Well,

There's something in the air

There were three ladies lived in a bower,

The splendor falls on castle walls.

They drive home the cows from the pasture.

The summer and autumn had been so wet

The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home;

Tiger, tiger, burning bright.

To the Lords of Convention 'twas Claverhouse who spoke:

Trample! trample ! went the roan,
