Emily Dickinson

He forgot—and I—remembered

203 He forgot—and I—remembered— 'Twas an everyday affair— Long ago as Christ and Peter— "Warmed them" at the "Temple fire. " "Thou wert with him"—quoth "the Damsel"? "No"—said Peter, 'twasn't me— Jesus merely "looked" at Peter— Could I do aught else—to Thee?
