| Abstract | A transcription of Emily Dickinson's poems "As summer into autumn slips," "The birds began at four o'clock," and "There is no frigate like a book." The transcriptions are part of the collection of transcriptions of Dickinson's poems produced by Mabel Loomis Todd for publication in a volume edited by her. Most transcriptions are in Todd’s own hand; some are typed, and some were transcribed by other individuals. A penciled note, "F. Norcross," is written on the upper left corner and refers to Frances Lavinia Norcross. Other notations are written in pencil on the transcript. These transcripts may relate to Emily Dickinson's manuscripts "As summer into autumn slips" (Amherst Manuscripts 141 and 703), "The birds began at four o'clock" (Amherst Manuscript fascicle 81) and "There is no frigate like a book" (Amherst Manuscript 462) in this collection |
| Notes | The item is undated. The date range is based on the year Emily Dickinson died and the year the final volume of Dickinson's poems and letters that Mabel Loomis Todd edited was published. |
