As One Does Sickness Over

Emily Dickinson

957

As One does Sickness over
In convalescent Mind,
His scrutiny of Chances
By blessed Health obscured-

As One rewalks a Precipice
And whittles at the Twig
That held Him from Perdition
Sown sidewise in the Crag

A Custom of the Soul
Far after suffering
Identity to question
For evidence't has been-
