F1.3.5-7 Morns like these - we parted -

F1.3.5-7 (Fascicle one Sheet three Stanza 5-7）

From Emily Dickinson’s Poems As She Preserved Them. Edited by Christine Miller

Morns like these - we parted -

Noons like these - she rose -

Fluttering first - then firmer

To her fair response.

这样的清晨- 我们永别 -

这样的中午 - 她升天了 -

先飘忽 - 后坚定地

做出她的决定 -

Never did she lisp it -

It was not for me -

She - was mute from transport -

I - from agony -

她一点都不含糊其诃 -

但那不是为我 -

她 - 于天途中保持缄默 -

我 - 因为痛苦欲言无声 -

Till - the evening nearing

One the curtains drew -

Quick! A sharper rustling!

And this linnet flew!

一直 - 挨近晚上

窗帘拉来了-

快！ 一阵悉索！

这只红雀飞走了！
