(33) THE Soul’s superior instants Occur to Her alone, When friend and earth’s occasion Have infinite withdrawn. Or she, Herself, ascended To too remote a height, For lower recognition Than Her Omnipotent. This mortal abolition Is seldom, but as fair As Apparition—subject To autocratic air. Eternity’s disclosure To favorites, a few, Of the Colossal substance Of immortality.
-Emily Dickinson
