Emily Dickinson

One Crucifixion is recorded—only

553
 
One Crucifixion is recorded—only—
How many be
Is not affirmed of Mathematics—
Or History—
 
One Calvary—exhibited to Stranger—
As many be
As persons—or Peninsulas—
Gethsemane—
 
Is but a Province—in the Being’s Centre—
Judea—
For Journey—or Crusade’s Achieving—
Too near—
 
Our Lord—indeed—made Compound Witness—
And yet—
There’s newer—nearer Crucifixion
Than That—
