"Belshazzar had a letter"

XXV.

Belshazzar had a letter, — He never had but one ; Belshazzar's correspondent Concluded and begun In that immortal copy The conscience of us all Can read without its glasses On revelation's wall.

 

from Poems by Emily Dickinson (1890)
"Whether my bark went down at sea"	"The brain within its groove"
