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

Part Four: Time and Eternity

LXXIV


WHAT inn is this
Where for the night
Peculiar traveller comes?
Who is the landlord?
Where the maids?        5
Behold, what curious rooms!
No ruddy fires on the hearth,
No brimming tankards flow.
Necromancer, landlord,
Who are these below?        10
