Did the harebell loose her girdle

 Did the harebell loose her girdle
 To the lover bee,
 Would the bee the harebell hallow
 Much as formerly?

 Did the paradise, persuaded,
 Yield her moat of pearl,
 Would the Eden be an Eden,
 Or the earl an earl?

by Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) , no title, from Poems by Emily Dickinson, published 1891
