Emily Dickinson's Correspondences
Correspondence with Susan Dickinson


H 308a
Safe Despair 
it is that 
raves   
Agony is 
frugal   
Puts itself 
severe [serene?] away
For its' own 
perusal   
Garrisoned no 
Soul can be
In the front 
of Trouble   

H 308b

Love is one - 
not aggregate - 
Nor is Dying 
double   
	Emily .
