The poem

To mend each tattered Faith There is a needle fair Though no appearance indicate -- 'Tis threaded in the Air --

And though it do not wear As if it never Tore 'Tis very comfortable indeed And spacious as before --

From the bookComplete Poems of Emily DickinsonEdited by Thomas H. Johnson (Little, Brown)
