letters from dickinson to cornelia sweetser


spring 1878


Sweet Mrs Nellie comes with the Robins.

Would she remain with the Robins April would need no Codicil, but Mrs Nellie has Wings -

Hours - have Wings -

Riches - have Wings -

Wings are a mournful perquisite -

A Society for the Suppression of Wings would protect us all.

Emily.
