Horace - Works |
|
He put the belt around my life, --
I heard the buckle snap,
And turned away, imperial,
My
lifetime
folding up
Deliberate, as a duke would do
A kingdom's title-deed, --
Henceforth a dedicated sort,
A member of the cloud.

Dickinson - Three - Complete |

And if I do, when morning comes,
It is as if a hundred drums
Did round my pillow roll,
And shouts fill all my
childish
sky,
And bells keep saying 'victory'
From steeples in my soul!
