TESTO DEL LIED
"The butterfly"di Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)
The butterfly obtains
But little sympathy,
Though favorably mentioned
In Entomology.
Because he travels freely
And wears a proper coat,
The circumspect are certain
That he is dissolute.
Had he the homely scutcheon of modest Industry,
'T were fitter certifying for Immortality.
