Emily Dickinson (1830–86).  Complete Poems.  1924.

Part One: Life

XLVI


A THOUGHT went up my mind to-day
That I have had before,
But did not finish,—some way back,
I could not fix the year,
  
Nor where it went, nor why it came        5
The second time to me,
Nor definitely what it was,
Have I the art to say.
  
But somewhere in my soul, I know
I ’ve met the thing before;        10
It just reminded me—’t was all—
And came my way no more.
