Его Исток - шелков Восток
Его Исток - шелков Восток
отчаянью в показ
из всех лишь скромно там и тут
оформившим заказ.
И пусть цена не золота,
но доступом трудна,
ту ценность нужно лишь постичь -
вот вся его цена...
(Эмили - о Спасителе и Его Солнце. Она постигла.
Но прав был Учитель, сказав: - Не бывает пророк без чести,
разве только в Отечестве своём и в доме своём...
Всех вас - с Его Рождеством.)
Байки Приста про "дары", и "купцов", и про стихи...
[David Preest:
The ‘Mind’ on display in this poem could belong to God,
the ‘mighty merchant’ of poem 621. His gift of Love is not
to be bought with gold, but is available to anyone who
understands its worth. But the ‘Fabrics of the East’ could
also be the poems of Emily herself. The only price she asks
for them is the ‘Ear/susceptive’ of poem 1048 which understands
their value. Whether she sells her poems or not depends on
the attitude of those who would buy them. The ‘Merchant of
the Picturesque’ in poem 1131 had followed the same principle.]

His Mind like Fabrics of the East by Emily Dickinson
His Mind like Fabrics of the East
Displayed to the despair
Of everyone but here and there
An humble Purchaser --
For though his price was not of Gold --
More arduous there is --
That one should comprehend the worth
Was all the price there was --
