Adrift! A little boat adrift!

He parts Himself—like Leaves

Sexton! My Master’s sleeping here

A Prompt Executive Bird is the Jay

A single Screw of Flesh (263)

Like Some Old fashioned Miracle (302)

Letter 275 (mid-November 1862) Samuel Bowles

No Notice gave She, but a Change

In Winter in my Room (1670)

Who occupies this House?

The last Night that She lived (1100)

In Shadow

When the Astronomer stops seeking

The Red—Blaze—is the Morning (469)

Tis little I—could care for Pearls (466)

It’s easy to invent a Life (724)

How many times these low feet staggered

I’ll send the feather from my Hat!

The Zeroes—taught us—Phosphorous (689)

I never hear the word

The Sunset stopped on Cottages

Time’s Lesson

On that dear Frame the Years had worn (940)

Letter 362 (mid-July 1871) - no ms. Louise Norcross

You’ve seen Balloons set—Haven’t You?

I had a guinea golden

Precious to Me—She still shall be (727)

A Narrow Fellow in the Grass

The Moon was but a Chin of Gold

Departed to the judgment

Two Butterflies went out at Noon— (533)

Heart, We Will Forget Him

Letter 264 (late May 1862) - no ms. Louise and Frances Norcross

I know that He exists

It Dropped So Low -- In My Regard

I never felt at Home—Below (413)

Heaven is so far of the Mind (370)

The Birds begun at Four o’clock (783)

The Bee is not afraid

If He were living—dare I ask (734)

For Death—or rather (382)

Letter 286 (mid-October 1863?) - no ms. Louise and Frances Norcross

Upon Concluded Lives (735)

My life closed twice before its close (96)

He strained my faith (497)

This World is not Conclusion

Tis Anguish grander than Delight (984)
