Emily Dickinson
Letter 220 (about 1860 - Franklin: early 1861) Samuel Bowles
Dear Mr Bowles.

    Thank you.

        "Faith" is a fine invention
        When Gentlemen can see -
        But Microscopes are prudent
        In an Emergency.

You spoke of the "East." I have thought about it this winter.

Dont you think you and I should be shrewder, to take the Mountain Road?

That Bareheaded life - under the grass - worries one like a Wasp.

The Rose is for Mary.

                                                                                                       Emily.
