Analysis of The Hollows round His eager Eyes
Emily Dickinson 1830 (Amherst) – 1886 (Amherst)
The Hollows round His eager Eyes
Were Pages where to read
Pathetic Histories—although
Himself had not complained.
Biography to All who passed
Of Unobtrusive Pain
Except for the italic Face
Endured, unhelped—unknown.
