Not Any Higher Stands The Grave

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

Not any higher stands the grave
For heroes than for men;
Not any nearer for the child
Than numb three-score and ten.

This latest leisure equal lulls
The beggar and his queen;
Propitiate this democrat
By summer's gracious mien.

(C) Emily Elizabeth Dickinson
