- To distil a few golden drops of song...
- The silvery beach, a riband around the flowing hair of the sea...
- With the breath of dawn...
- From her many-colored bow Nature...
- If words fail, song will come...
- Like tears shed over a dream...
- Flames flickered in the fireplace...
- What world-agony distils its poignancy this day...
- The amber west melts into saffron...
- The rosy mist stilly polishes the round mirror...
- The sun's golden spear...
- A field of battle — this sky...
