Dickinson, Emily: A Cloud withdrew from the Sky

Portre of Dickinson, Emily

A Cloud withdrew from the Sky (English)

A Cloud withdrew from the Sky
Superior Glory be
But that Cloud and its Auxiliaries
Are forever lost to me

Had I but further scanned
Had I secured the Glow
In an Hermetic Memory
It had availed me now.

Never to pass the Angel
With a glance and a Bow
Till I am firm in Heaven
Is my intention now.
