I'VE GOT AN ARROW HERE by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Sped by an archer's bow
Subject(s): MESSAGES & MESSAGERS; LOVE – UNRQUITED; ARROWS;
I've got an arrow here.
Loving the hand that sent it
I the dart revere.

Fell, they will say, in "skirmish"!
Vanquished, my soul will know
By but a simple arrow
Sped by an archer's bow.
