Tell my Strephon that I die  20  3 
From place to place, forlorn I go  20  2 
There is one dark and sullen hour  20  2 
Fair, and soft, and gay and young  20-21  3 
Tho' cruel you seem to my pain  21-22  6 
Ye shepherds and nymphs that adorn the gay plain  22  6 
Ye happy swains whose hearts are free  22-23  5 
When your beauty appears  23  4 
As Amoret with Phyllis sat  23  2

Away, let nought to love displeasing  28  8 
O Nancy, wilt thou go with me  28-29  4 
On Belvidera's bosom lying  30  2 
Boast not, mistaken swain thy art  30  5 
My love was fickle once and changing  31  4 
Not, Celia, that I juster am  31  4 
It is not, Celia, in our power  31-32  2 
Say, Myra, why is gentle love  32  3 
Cynthia frowns whene'er I woo her  32  2 
Love's but the frailty of the mind  32-33  3 
Fair Amoret is gone astray  33  4 
In Chloris all soft charms agree  33  3 
Yes Fulvia is like Venus fair  34  4 
I can tell thee, Charmion, could I time retrieve  34  2 
Damon, if you will believe me  34-35  5

Let not love on me bestow  35  2 
Why we love, and why we hate  35-36  3 
Dear Colin prevent my warm blushes  36  4 
Good madam, when ladies are willing  36  4 
When first I sought Caelia's love  36-37  4 
Corinna cost me many a prayer  37  3 
All my past life is mine no more  37  3 
Yes, I'm in love, I feel it now  37-38  4 
Ye little loves that round her wait  38  2 
Love and folly were at play  38  2 
Amorous swain to Juno pray'd, An  38  2 
Swain, thy hopeless passion smother  39  2 
Cupid, instruct an amorous swain  39  2 
Love's a dream of mighty treasure  39-40  4 
Tell me no more I am deceiv'd  40  2 
Mistaken fair, lay Sherlock by  40  4 
Chloe's the wonder of her sex  41  2 
When Orpheus went down to the regions below  41  4 
Vain are the charms of white and red  41  4 
Chloe brisk and gay appears  42  3 
Oh! turn away those cruel eyes  42  4 
In vain, fond youth, thy tears give o'er  42  3 
Merchant to secure his treasure, The  43  4 
Celia hoard thy charms no more  43-44  4 
As the snow in vallies lying  44  4 
Celia, too late you would repent  44-45  5 
If the quick spirit of your eye  45  2 
Late when love I seem'd to slight  45  3 
Ah! Chloris, could I now but sit  46  3 
Graces and the wand'ring loves, The  46  2 
Say, lovely dream, where could'st thou find  47  7 
Come little infant love me now  47-48  8 
Gentle air, thou breath of lovers  48  4 
She loves, and she confesses too  48-49  4 
'Tis now since I sat down before  49-50  10 
Pursuing beauty, men descry  50  5 
Stella and Flavia every hour  50-51  2 
When gentle Celia first I knew  51-52  7 
When first upon your tender cheek  52  5 
As Ariana young and fair  52-53  3 
When first I saw Lucinda's face  53  3 
Chloris, yourself you so excel  53-54  3 
Strephon has fashion, wit and youth  54  4 
At Cynthia's feet I sigh'd, I pray'd  54  5 
Wine, wine in the morning  55  3 
In vain, dear Chloe, you suggest  55-56  5 
Should some perverse malignant star  56  2 
Why will Florella while I gaze  56  4 
I am, cry'd Apollo, when Daphne he woo'd  56-57  4 
Devil burn 'em---those wits are jack-asses  57-58  6 
Kind nature had thrown off the load  58-59  5 
Ye clouds of a dirt-colour dye  59-60  6 
There be lovers, of life so profuse  60-61  7 
Tom loves Mary passing well  61-62  4 
You may say what you will, but Belinda's too tall  62  7 
It is, I believe  62-63  5 
My sweet pretty Mogg, you're as soft as a bog  63-64  3 
O saw ye my father, or saw ye my mother  64  7 
Here is an old song, made by an old ancient pate  64-66  13 
You that love mirth, attend to my song  66-67  6 
Have you any pots or pans  67-68  4 
Blab not what you ought to smother  68  4 
Do not ask me, charming Phillis  68-69  6 
Cobler there was and he liv'd in a stall, A  69-70  6 
As cross the field, the other morn  70  3 
Returning from the fair one eve  70-71  3 
I'm jolly Dick, the lamplighter  71  8 
Devil pull'd off his jacket of flame, The  71-72  2 
Dean and Prebendary, A  72  4 
But are you sure the news is true?  73-74  9 
Willy, after courting long  74  3 
It was a friar of orders gray  75-77  27 
Turn, gentle hermit of the dale  77-81  39 
Of Leinster fam'd for maidens fair  81-82  8 
When all was wrapt in dark midnight  82-84  18 
'Twas when the seas were roaring  84-85  5 
All in the Downs the fleet was moor'd  85-86  8 
Daphnis stood pensive in the shade  86-87  8 
Despairing beside a clear stream  87-88  7 
As on a summer's day  88-89  8 
Alexis shunn'd his fellow swains  89-90  6 
One morning very early, one morning in the spring  90-91  6 
Sun was sunk beneath the hill, The  91  6 
What beauties does Flora disclose?  92  4 
Far in the windings of a vale  92-94  24 
Western sky was purl'd o'er, The [sic]  95-96  14 
O'er moorlands and mountains rude barren and bare  96  4 
Ye shepherds so cheerful and gay  97-98  6 
My banks they are furnish'd with bees  98-99  8 
Why will you my passion reprove  99-100  7 
Ye shepherds give ear to my lay  100-101  6 
Come, shepherds, we'll follow the hearse  102  4 
Gentle swan, with graceful pride, The  102-103  4 
In a small pleasant village, by nature complete  103  3 
In my pleasant native plains  104  3 
'Twas in the bloom of May  104-105  4 
T' other day as I sat in a sycamore shade  105  3 
Tell me, lovely shepherd, where  105  1 
Fairest of the virgin throng  106  1 
Come, Roger and Nell, Simkin and Bell  106  3 
Spring returns, the fawns advance  106-107  5 
Cast, my love, thine eyes around  107  5 
When forc'd from dear Hebe to go  107-108  5
