Poems (1896), 93 (first stanza only), titled "Dreams." SH 101 (second stanza only, following copy to Susan), apparently following Dickinson's scheme for lineation since the first line is divided and printed as two lines. Both stanzas are not printed together until New England Quarterly, XX (1947), 44, which takes the version in the fascicle as its copy text. Torn at left and bottom. "X" on verso.
