WHETHER MY BARK WENT DOWN AT SEA by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Out upon the Bay
Subject(s): BOATS; SOUL;

Whether my bark went down at sea,
Whether she met with gales,
Whether to isles enchanted
She bent her docile sails ;

By what mystic mooring
She is held to-day, -
This is the errand of the eye
Out upon the bay
