Vermont 208

Lyrics: Emily Dickinson, 1882
Tune: Dana Maiben, 1991
Meter: P.M.

I dwell in Possibility -
A fairer House than Prose -
More num'brous of Windows -
Superior - for Doors -

Of Chambers as the Cedars -
Impregnable of Eye -
And for an Everlasting Roof -
The Gambrels of the Sky -

Of Visitors - the fairest -
For Occupation - This -
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To gather Paradise -
