Some—Work for Immortality

Emily Dickinson
406 Some—Work for Immortality— The Chiefer part, for Time— He—Compensates—immediately— The former—Checks—on Fame— Slow Gold—but Everlasting— The Bullion of Today— Contrasted with the Currency Of Immortality— A Beggar—Here and There— Is gifted to discern Beyond the Broker's insight— One's—Money—One's—the Mine—
