Dickinson, Emily: (A Rat surrendered here)

Portre of Dickinson, Emily
Dickinson, Emily

(A Rat surrendered here) (English)

A Rat surrendered here
A brief career of Cheer
And Fraud and Fear.

Of Ignominy's due
Let all addicted to
Beware.

The most obliging Trap
Its tendency to snap
Cannot resist —

Temptation is the Friend
Repugnantly resigned
At last.
   
   
(1875)
