Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

* * *

I asked no other thing,
No other was denied.
I offered Being for it;
The mighty merchant smiled.

Brazil? He twirled a button,
Without a glance my way:
"But, madam, is there nothing else
That we can show to-day?"

1. The Wife
2. Rouge Gagne
3. The Book of Martyrs
4. Whether My Bark Went Down at Sea
5. Belshazzar Had a Letter
