American Literature – American Poetry – Emily Dickinson
< < < On this long storm the rainbow rose
Our share of night to bear > > >
One dignity delays for all
One dignity delays for all,
One mitred afternoon.
None can avoid this purple,
None evade this crown.
Coach it insures, and footmen,
Chamber and state and throng;
Bells, also, in the village,
As we ride grand along.
What dignified attendants,
What service when we pause!
How loyally at parting
Their hundred hats they raise!
How pomp surpassing ermine,
When simple you and I
Present our meek escutcheon,
And claim the rank to die!
< < < On this long storm the rainbow rose
Our share of night to bear > > >
