A nostalgic poem recalls a silverly laugh that brightens a weary path. The speaker feels a distant, joyous voice return home as shadows fade, the Ingleside home promising hope. The merry laugh acts as a guiding bell through care, transforming sorrow into light.
A speaker, more than forty years old, praises a man of learning and public virtue who loves his mother deeply. The passage extols filial devotion, a mother's gray hair as beauty, and reverence for elders amid a busy age, urging respect for parental love and care.
The piece blends reflections on warriors and Moses with moral counsels, Japanese reform tales, and social commentaries. It contrasts nameless graves with revered leaders, praises Japan’s education and justice, critiques taxation, and nods to political and social quips from era newspapers.
Fragmentary verse depicts a speaker yearning for a beloved gaze and entering joy through sorrow. The speaker imagines entering a gate of greeting, then laments departure and the return of mournful fancies.
A New Haven fragment retells The Widow of Nain with a sunset scene on Jaden's hills and the Christ touch that raises the dead, followed by a list of apostolic martyrdoms and a child’s puzzled remark about a steamboat image.
