Lost

XXXVI. LOST.

I lost a world the other day. Has anybody found ? You'll know it by the row of stars Around its forehead bound. A rich man might not notice it ; Yet to my frugal eye Of more esteem than ducats. Oh, find it, sir, for me !

 

from Poems by Emily Dickinson (1890)
Emancipation	"If I shouldn't be alive"
