I. The return; October-An etching; Autumn daybreak; Teh oak-leaves; The fledgling; The hedge of Hemlocks; Cap D' Antibes; From a train window; the fawn - II. Valentine; In the grave no flower; childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies; The solid sprite who stands alone; Spring in the garden; Sonnet - III. Aubade; Sappho Crosses the dark river into Hades; IV. Epitaph; On thought in harness; Desolation dreamed of ; The leaf and the tree; On the wide heath; Apostrophe to man; Two sonnets in memory; My spirit, sore from marching; Conscientious objector; Above theses cares; If still your orchards bear; Lines for a grave-stone; How naked, how without a wall -V. Epitaph for the race of man - Before this cooking planet shall be cold; When death was young and bleaching bones were few; Cretaceous bird, your giant claw no lime; O Earth, unhappy planet born to die; When man is gone and only gods remain; See where Capella with her golden kids; He heard the coughing tiger in the night; Ovserve how Miyanoshita cracked in two; He woke in terroe to a sky more bright; The broken dike, the levee washed away; Sweeter was loss than silver coins to spend; Now forth to meadow as the farmer goes; His hearless room the watcher of the stars; Him not the golden fang of furious heaven; Now sets his foot upon the eastern sill; Alas for man, so stealthily betrayed; Only the diamond and the diamond's dust; Here lies, and none to mourn him but the sea
