| Abstract | A transcription of Emily Dickinson's poem "He outstripped time with but a bout." 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 note at the bottom of the page concerning the final word "ring" is signed "M.L.T." and refers to Mabel Loomis Todd. The note states that the word ring looks equally like king and in comparing a dozen instances, likely referring to Dickinson's handwriting and original manuscripts, that R and K are made the same. Other notations are written in pencil on the transcript. This transcript may relate to Emily Dickinson's manuscript "He outstripped time with but a bout" (Amherst Manuscript set 87) 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. |
