Emily Dickinson - There's something quieter than sleep lyrics

45 There's something quieter than sleep Within this inner room! It wears a sprig upon its breast And will not tell its name Some touch it, and some kiss it Some chafe its idle hand It has a simple gravity I do not understand! I would not weep if I were they How rude in one to sob! Might scare the quiet fairy Back to her native wood! While simple-hearted neighbors Chat of the "Early dead" We—prone to periphrasis Remark that Birds have fled!
