Letter 270 (about 20 July 1862) Eudocia C. Flynt

Dear Mrs Flint

You and I, did'nt finish talking. Have you room for the sequel, in your Vase?

         All the letters I could write,
         Were not fair as this -
         Syllables of Velvet -
         Sentences of Plush -
         Depths of Ruby, undrained -
         Hid, Lip, for Thee,
         Play it were a Humming Bird
         And sipped just Me -

                                                                                                    Emily.
