Эмили Дикинсон (Emily Elizabeth Dickinson)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

Contrast


A door just opened on a street --
  I, lost, was passing by --
An instant's width of warmth disclosed,
  And wealth, and company.

The door as sudden shut, and I,
  I, lost, was passing by, --
Lost doubly, but by contrast most,
  Enlightening misery.
