Nor when it altered, I could say,
For I had worn it, every day,
As constant as the Childish frock --
I hung upon the Peg, at night.
(The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson)

Angel's breathless ballotLingers to record thee --
Imps in eager Caucus
Raffle for my Soul!

He cared as much as on the Air
A Bird -- had stamped her foot --
And cried "Give Me" --
My Reason -- Life --
I had not had -- but for Yourself --
'Twere better Charity
To leave me in the Atom's Tomb --
Merry, and Nought, and gay, and numb --
Than this smart Misery.
Emily Dickinson
Since then 'tis centuries and yet
Feels shorter than the DAY
I first surmised the horses' heads
Were toward eternity.
Emily Dickinson
Steady -- my soul: What issues
Upon thine arrow hang!
Emily Dickinson

That Brooks in Meadows run!
