Poem

Read—Sweet—how others—strove

Emily Dickinson
260 Read—Sweet—how others—strove— Till we—are stouter— What they—renounced— Till we—are less afraid— How many times they—bore the faithful witness— Till we—are helped— As if a Kingdom—cared! Read then—of faith— That shone above the fagot— Clear strains of Hymn The River could not drown— Brave names of Men— And Celestial Women— Passed out—of Record Into—Renown!
