Emily Dickinson (1830–86).  Complete Poems.  1924.

Part Four: Time and Eternity

XXXVI


I LOST a world the other day.
Has anybody found?
You ’ll know it by the row of stars
Around its forehead bound.
  
A rich man might not notice it;        5
Yet to my frugal eye
Of more esteem than ducats.
Oh, find it, sir, for me!
