Emily Dickinson's Correspondences
Correspondence with Susan Dickinson


H 307a
"Remember Me" 
implored the 
Thief  
Oh Magna 
nimity!
My Visitor 
in Paradise
I give thee 
Guaranty.
That Courtesy 
will fair 
remain
When the 
Delight is 
Dust
H 307b
With which 
we cite this 
Mightiest case
Of Compensated 
Trust.

Of All, we 
are allowed 
to hope
But Affidavit 
stands
That this was 
due, where 
some, we fear,
Are unexpected 
friends -
Emily -
