Answer:

"O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being"

"Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere"  

"Destroyer and preserver; hear, O hear!"

Explanation:

"Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red"   is about the autumn leaves, not the wind. Same goes for "Each like a corpse within its grave, until" .

The Wind is the destroyer and the preserver because it strips the leaves off trees and spreads them over the landscape, but also spreads seeds. Wild spirit, because it is like it has its own will. The author talks about the wind with a capital W, suggesting that it is a person, or an entity. A destroyer and a preserver spirit.
