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

Part Five: The Single Hound

LXXXII


I FIT for them,
I seek the dark till I am thorough fit.
The labor is a solemn one,
With this sufficient sweet—
That abstinence as mine produce        5
A purer good for them,
If I succeed,—
If not, I had
The transport of the Aim.
