Given in marriage unto thee

by Emily Dickinson · (no date)
Published 01/07/1880

      Oh, thou celestial host!

Bride of the Father and the Son,

      Bride of the Holy Ghost!


Other betrothal shall dissolve,

      Wedlock of will decay;

Only the keeper of this seal

      Conquers mortality.
