Dickinson, Emily: The Court is far away — 235

The Court is far away —
No Umpire — have I —
My Sovereign is offended —
To gain his grace — I'd die!

I'll seek his royal feet —
I'll say — Remember — King —
Thou shalt — thyself — one day — a Child —
Implore a larger — thing —

That Empire — is of Czars —
As small — they say — as I —
Grant me — that day — the royalty —
To intercede — for Thee —
