letters from dickinson to the mathers

To Mrs. Richard H. Mather
From ED


about 1882


Dear friend,

It is "Weeks off" as little Dombey said, since you sent me the lovely flowers, but Memory is the Sherry Flower not allowed to wilt -

I hope you may never be ill - Should you, I trust some Hand as fair may refresh your faintness -

E- Dickinson -
