| Abstract | A transcription of Emily Dickinson's poem "Springs - shake the sills." 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. A line of four 'x' marks separate six lines of poetry above and seven lines below. The seven lines below the marks begin with the line "Springs - shake the seals." Above the transcription "Safe in their alabaster chambers" is written in pencil and enclosed in brackets. |
| 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. |
