398 
 
I had not minded—Walls— 
Were Universe—one Rock— 
And fr I heard his silver Call 
The other side the Block— 
 
I'd tunnel—till my Groove 
Pushed sudden thro' to his— 
Then my face take her Recompense— 
The looking in his Eyes— 
 
But 'tis a single Hair— 
A filament—a law— 
A Cobweb—wove in Adamant— 
A Battlement—of Straw— 
 
A limit like the Veil 
Unto the Lady's face— 
But every Mesh—a Citadel— 
And Dragons—in the Crease—
Emily Dickinson
