The Life and Legacy of Emily Dickinson (Illustrated Biography)

Poems—First Series:

Book I.—Life:

Success

Our share of night to bear

Rouge et Noir

Rouge gagne

Glee! the storm is over

If I can stop one heart from breaking

Almost

A wounded deer leaps highest

The heart asks pleasure first

In a Library

Much madness is divinest sense

I asked no other thing

Exclusion

The Secret

The Lonely House

To fight aloud is very brave

Dawn

The Book of Martyrs

The Mystery of Pain

I taste a liquor never brewed

A Book

I had no time to hate, because

Unreturning

Whether my bark went down at sea

Belshazzar had a letter

The brain within its groove

Book II.—Love:

Mine

Bequest

Alter? When the hills do

Suspense

Surrender

If you were coming in the fall

With a Flower

Proof

Have you got a brook in your little heart?

Transplanted

The Outlet

In Vain

Renunciation

Love's Baptism

Resurrection

Apocalypse

The Wife

Apotheosis

Book III.—Nature:

New feet within my garden go

May-Flower

Why?

Perhaps you 'd like to buy a flower

The pedigree of honey

A Service of Song

The bee is not afraid of me

Summer's Armies

The Grass

A little road not made of man

Summer Shower

Psalm of the Day

The Sea of Sunset

Purple Clover

The Bee

Presentiment is that long shadow

As children bid the guest good-night

Angels in the early morning

So bashful when I spied her

Two Worlds

The Mountain

A Day

The butterfly's assumption-gown

The Wind

Death and Life

'T was later when the summer went

Indian Summer

Autumn

Beclouded

The Hemlock

There's a certain slant of light

Book IV.—Time and Eternity:

One dignity delays for all

Too late

Astra Castra

Safe in their alabaster chambers

On this long storm the rainbow rose

From the Chrysalis

Setting Sail

Look back on time with kindly eyes

A train went through a burial gate

I died for beauty, but was scarce

Troubled about many things

Real

The Funeral

I went to thank her

I've seen a dying eye…
