Emily Dickinson's Collected Poems

Part Four: Time and Eternity 63. Ample make this bed

A COUNTRY BURIAL.


Ample make this bed.

Make this bed with awe;

In it wait till judgment break

Excellent and fair.


Be its mattress straight,

Be its pillow round;

Let no sunrise' yellow noise

Interrupt this ground.
