364Once more on balmy wingsPage Scan
365Great God, within these temple gatesPage Scan
366O God, in thy autumnal skiesPage Scan
367The break of morn and MayPage Scan

392From Zion's holy hill there rosePage Scan
393'Tis sweet, when life's last work is donePage Scan
394As from these hallowed scenes we goPage Scan
395O maiden, at the dawn of dayPage Scan
396The flower that opened to the lightPage Scan
397The year, as now it dies awayPage Scan
398The mountains wide and valleys farPage Scan
