Emily Dickinson's Correspondences
Correspondence with Susan Dickinson


H 292a
Nature - sometimes 
sears a Sapling -
Sometimes - scalps 
a Tree -
Her Green People 
recollect it -
When they do not 
die -
Fainter Leaves - to 
further Seasons
Dumbly testify -

H 292b

We - who have 
the Souls 
Die oftener - not 
so vitally -
		Emily.
