1They shut me up in Prose –

2As when a little Girl

3They put me in the Closet –

4Because they liked me “still” –

5Still! Could themself have peeped –

6And seen my Brain – go round –

7They might as wise have lodged a Bird

8For Treason – in the Pound –

9Himself has but to will

10And easy as a Star

11Look down opon Captivity –

12And laugh – No more have I –
