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

Part Five: The Single Hound

XLI


LIKE Men and Women shadows walk
Upon the hills today,
With here and there a mighty bow,
Or trailing courtesy
To Neighbors, doubtless, of their own;        5
Not quickened to perceive
Minuter landscape, as Ourselves
And Boroughs where we live.
