THE INUNDATION OF THE SPRING by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: For that Peninsula
Subject(s): WATER;

The inundation of the Spring
Enlarges every soul -
It sweeps the tenement away
But leaves the Water whole -

In which the soul at first estranged -
Seeks faintly for its shore
But acclimated - pines no more
For that Peninsula
