Bird's off-flying or downleap of wind
He found her noticed smile almost too moving

God, whom the child so easily obtained
David

Pregnant
How, Lord, should any angel plumb this deep
Your heart be like a nest which none ascend to
Notes and fragments for a poem on Judith
Where the galley-slaves
Sober flowers before green, feelings of morning
Childhood
The lovely wind goes preening through the wood
Sharp tower-fracture, ancient underjaw
Doves updive
Song
and in the opaque of his breast
Look, lovers: almost separately they come
ah. between me now and this bird-call here
Life, limitation, what, what not, to be
ah, so undefined and so without all
And his eyelids carried like a mouth
Florindo: judge of those who do not care

I could be friends with you, sombre youths

Glances detained me stars
Shall I once more have Spring
Apparitioin
Ah, how you give the reins
whom, though the zeal of suffering ever has seized

I knower: into all activity

Cancelled conclusion of the second section of the preceding poem
The assumption
On the death of the Virgin Mary
To the angel
The raising of Lazarus
If I, unequal to my death at last
The spirit Ariel
Is there nothing to follow?
Along the white house-fronts an overflowing
There brawls the brook, of you that hear its coil
We have no notion what we squander
Straining so hard against strong night
Long you will have to suffer, knowing not what
Standing before the heaven of my life
What could your smile obtrude upon me that night
What, what that night would not give me.
Overflowing heavens of squandered stars
Alas, a mortal, yearningly, hastily
Can that be the redthorn, which presently
One spring
Emmaus
Nacissus
First draft of material
One renouncing knowledge of that sadness
The harrowing of hell
St. Christopher
The doves
Morning sky
Those I as prentic eeforsook
Shatter me, music, with rhythmical fury
We waken to the memories we're endued with
My being, with thoughts of you
Why are you not yourself a star among stars
I am, nightingale, am what you sing
If you, my lovely, darkness-reflecting spring
Behind the innocent trees
Heand of Amenophis IV
For Lotte Pritzel
Just as the orbing moon, exalted, full of occasion
When I approach a window, over there
You, implanted where the powerful course
Subjected as it is to nature's reign
O heart thus slowly loosened from life's thread
Widow
May it rise no more to my disgrace
One whose spirit farthest joys have fired
Oftener, feeling how the yet unthreaded
Stanzas for winter
Rejected draft for a contunuation of the preceding poem
Five sonnets
From the drafts of the preceding five sonnets
Merely to comprehend its merest dawning
Is not smile there?
Original version of the tenth duino elegy
O sure and swiftly guided phough
Tears will not let me speak
Whether I was or am you are faring
Turned towards the stillingness up there
Night-thoughts! Out of the fathomless intimation
In towering over me with those commanding
Oh, how often, and with, oh, what weeping
Let us not in thsi dark sweetness strain
Angels, angels, penetrating space
How has day been able to pretend
Did I not breate in from nights I shared
So, then, it will be the Angel who
Away! whom I called so upon to taste of my smile
Once it was all allotted otherwise
Do not wait upon the choice you're able
How outhold this face till its feeling fill
Once between my folding hands I held it
Oh, but of face unto face
When your countenance I'm so consuming
I'd often stand at the window started the day before
At last, night hour, I'm free from anxiousness
Let me withstand your breakers of influence: hurl them
Between the face of the stilled praise and blesser
Thatball of shadow sketched with such insistence
Since the marvellous days of the creation
Oh, if only from some angel's feeling
Looking up from your book, from the lines so countably near
Now I've come to know it
Dearest Mary, your weeping
Good day. What's it brought for us? Is this it
Time-of-a-life-time Life, that can extend
Like the evening wind that blows
Beloved, lost to begin with, never greeted
Even yet they're losing it, the parted
Lightly the god is seduced to embracing, impelled by
Ever own leaf turning grove
Where shall I make for
His life was who could ever make it clear
Through the bushes like a puff of air
Out of stooping under shelter stand
To be feeling you, I am constrained to
Hating to the eyes' capacity
From unguessable agedness
Look at the lightsome insect, how it plays, it has never escaped
Inward looking forest lake, you standing
Long he'd outwrung it with gazing
First draft of the preceding poem
Who'd hear your lament, heart? Ever foresakener
Man must die, because he has known them
Let me be consumed
All today for your sake I'll be feeling
Where we, inthronging one another, fail
For the first time I see you rising
Oh, to see men in the grip of something! Already
Only three days, and now? Am I really singing the terror
O friends, our ancient heart, our familiar heart
Up, and frighten the frightful god! Convulse him!
Original conclusion of the second Hymn
Now it is you I will praise, banner, you, that from childhood
First drafts of the Conclusion of the preceding poem
Thus feelings here on earth we're apprehending
Has feeling out each other really blazed us
Everything beckons to us to perceive it
Look at a thing, so all entwined
A pleasing impulse comes into his mind
Almost as on that day when the dead shall from earth's embracing
Lingering, even with intimate things
As the sailor, growing old, is silent
Exposed on the heart's mountains. Look, how small there
Smiling, smiling yes, you could manage it often
Exposed. Suddenly
Over past years, a wholly
Lulu, is it us? Or does some greeting
Let me never at your lips be drinking
Yet once more toward sthe man extended
Look, I know, there exist
Oh, how dense they've now become, our bowering
Through the suddenly delicious garden
As the surfaces of water soar
Nights I'll get the Angel to declare
Where the tap-root of their love is wrestling
Snatching us from listless, dim abysses
No more than birds with nesting places
In this inward gazing and submerging
Homecoming where? Since pain are all embraces
There, in my first enduring tower suspended
Look, I really am not; if I should be
Can you still recall how by your chair
I feel it still, that memorable night
Continually when during these last years
Time and again, however well we know the landscape of love
There the house still seems as delightful as ever
Now you, old tame grown festival, return
Oh, would that I could choose
This festival, my heart, relinquish too
Then you would always share in that delight
Into some high achievement's long preparing
This year, whose strength was in destructiveness
In nineteen hundred and fourteen, I came to be
Is it strange that in spite of all I arose?
Just once appearing street, like a star's fall
You, you only, exist
Only the noise as he breaks the next piece of muteness
Where does it reach to, where, the voice of huamnity
Conquers the melodious instinct.
