- My Eternal Man set in Repose
- The Female from his darkness rose
- And She found me beneath a Tree
- A Mandrake & in her Veil hid me
- Serpent Reasonings us entice
- Of Good & Evil: Virtue and Vice
- Doubt Self Jealous Watry folly
- Struggling thro Earth's Melancholy
- Naked in Air in Shame & Fear
- Blind in Fire with shield & spear
- Two Horn'd Reasoning Cloven Fiction
- In Doubt which is Self contradiction
- A dark Hermaphrodite We stood
- Rational Truth Root of Evil & Good
- Round me flew the Flaming Sword
- Round her snowy Whirlwinds roard
- Freezing her Veil the Mundane Shell
- I rent the Veil where the Dead dwell
- When weary Man enters his Cave
- He meets his Saviour in the Grave
- Some find a Female Garment there
- And some a Male, woven with care
- Lest the Sexual Garments sweet
- Should grow a devouring Winding sheet
- One Dies! Alas! The Living & Dead
- One is slain & One is fled
- In Vain-glory hatcht & nurst
- By double Spectres Self Accurst
- My Son! my Son! thou treatest me
- But as I have instructed thee
- On the shadows of the Moon
- Climbing thro Nights highest noon
- In Times Ocean falling drownd
- In Aged Ignorance profound
- Holy & cold I clipd the Wings
- Of all Sublunary Things
- And in depths of my Dungeons
- Closed the Father & the Sons
- But when once I did descry
- The Immortal Man that cannot Die
- Thro evening shades I haste away
- To close the Labours of my Day
- The Door of Death I open found
- And the Worm Weaving in the Ground
- Thou'rt my Mother from the Womb
- Wife, Sister, Daughter to the Tomb
- Weaving to Dreams the Sexual strife
- And weeping over the Web of Life
