Off with your hat as the flag goes by!
And let the heart have its say;
You're man enough for a tear in your eye
That you will not wipe away.

— Henry Cuyler Bunner Airs from Arcady and Elsewhere (1884)

Ah woe is me, through all my days
Wisdom and wealth I both have got,
And fame and name and great men’s praise;
But Love, ah! Love I have it not.

Airs from Arcady and Elsewhere (1884)

Shake was a dramatist of note;
He lived by writing things to quote.

A pitcher of mignonette,
In a tenement's highest casement:
Queer sort of flower-pot—yet
That pitcher of mignonette
Is a garden in heaven set,
To the little sick child in the basement—
The pitcher of mignonette,
In the tenement's highest casement.
