Emily Dickenson - Letter 240 (about 1861 - Franklin: autumn 1862) Austin Dickinson lyrics

Austin - Father said Frank Conkey - touched you - A Burdock - clawed my Gown - Not Burdock's - blame - But mine - Who went too near The Burdock's Den A Bog - affronts my shoe - What else have Bogs - to do - The only trade they know - The splashing Men! Ah, pity - then! 'Tis Minnows can despise! The Elephant's - calm eyes Look further on! Emily -
