Dickinson, Emily: (Abraham to kill him —)

Portre of Dickinson, Emily

(Abraham to kill him —) (English)

Abraham to kill him —
Was distinctly told —
Isaac was an Urchin —
Abraham was old —

Not a hesitation —
Abraham complied —
Flattered by Obeisance
Tyranny demurred —

Isaac — to his children
Lived to tell the tale —
Moral — with a Mastiff
Manners may prevail
   
   
(1874 körül)
