Why fear to-morrow, timid heart.
Why have the mighty lived-why have they died.
Why, having won her, do I woo.....
Why I tie about thy wrist..
Why, if 'tis dancing you would be..
Why there in the least touch of her hands
Why, lovely charmer, tell me why.
“Why, Phoebe, are you come so soon
Why so pale and wan, fond lover..
“Why weep ye by the tide, ladie”.
Why, why repine, my pensive friend.
“Why, William, on that old gray stone"
Widow Machree, it's no wonder you frown.
“Will you take a walk with me
“Will you walk a little faster?" said a whiting to a snail..
“Will you walk into my parlor?” said the Spider to the Fly.
“Willy's rare, and Willy's fair”.
Wilt Thou forgive that sin where I begun..
Wind of the North. ...
With my will, but much against my heart.
With an honest old friend and a merry old song.
With blackest moss the flower-pots..
With breath of thyme and bees that hum.
With death doomed to grapple.
With deep affection and recollection.
With fingers weary and worn..
With fore-cloth smoothed by careful hands.
With how sad steps, O Moon, thou climb'st the skies.
With leaden foot Time creeps along..
With lifted feet, hands still. .
With little here to do or see.
With pensive eyes the little room I view.
With pipe and flute the rustic Pan.
With rakish eye and plenished crop.
With ships the sea was sprinkled far and nigh.
With strawberries we filled a tray...
Within his sober realm of leafless trees
Within the mind strong fancies work..
Within what weeks the melilot.
Woman! experience might have told me.
Women there are on earth, most sweet and high.
Woodman, spare that tree.
Word was brought to the Danish King.
Worn with the battle of Stamford town.
Would that the structure brave, the manifold music I build,
Would Wisdom for herself be wooed.
Would you be young again.
Wouldst thou hear what man can say.
Wreathe no more lilies in my hair.
Wreathe the bowl...
Wrong not, sweet empress of my heart.
Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night.
