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

Part Four: Time and Eternity

XVII

I NEVER saw a moor,
I never saw the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God,        5
Nor visited in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the chart were given.
