Abstract
A transcription of Emily Dickinson's poem "Speech is a prank of parliament." The transcription is 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. Editor's marks and notes are written in pencil on the transcription including a note referring to Francis Norcross Dickinson. A variant of the final line is written at the bottom of the transcript and a portion of the first line is written on the reverse side and crossed out. This transcript may relate to Emily Dickinson's manuscript "Speech is a prank of parliament" (Amherst Manuscript 691) in this collection.
