Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

Rouge et Noir

Soul, wilt thou toss again?
By just such a hazard
Hundreds have lost, indeed,
But tens have won an all.

Angels' breathless ballot
Lingers to record thee;
Imps in eager caucus
Raffle for my soul.

1. Precedence
2. The Forgotten Grave
3. Superiority to Fate
4. My Country's Wardrobe
5. Unto My Books So Good to Turn
