FATAL INTERVIEW SONNETS:
"Night is my sister, and how deep in love,"
"Not in a silver casket cool with pearls"
"My most distinguished guest and learned friend,"
"I dreamed I moved among the Elysian fields,"
"Sweet love, sweet thorn, when lightly to my heart,"
"Think not, not for a moment let your mind,"
"I know the face of Falsehood and her tongue,"
"Whereas at morning in a jeweled crown
I bit my fingers and was hard to please,"
" Women have loved before as I love now;"
"When we are old and these rejoicing veins
Are frosty channels to a muted stream,"
"Love is not all, it is not meat nor drink"

THE HARP WEAVER SONNETS:
"Here is a wound that never will heal, I know,"
"I, being born a woman and distressed"
"I know I am but summer to your heart,"
"I shall go back again to the bleak shore"
"Oh, Oh, you will be sorry for those words"
"Pity me not because the light of day"
"Sometimes when I am wearied suddenly"
"What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why,"
