Эмили Дикинсон (Emily Elizabeth Dickinson)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

* * *


Undue significance a starving man attaches
To food
Far off; he sighs, and therefore hopeless,
And therefore good.

Partaken, it relieves indeed, but proves us
That spices fly
In the receipt. It was the distance
Was savory.
