BLESS GOD, HE WENT AS SOLDIERS by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: I should not fear the fight!
Subject(s): GOD;

Bless God, he went as soldiers,
His musket on his breast -
Grant God, he charge the bravest
Of all the martial blest!

Please God, might I behold him
In epauletted white -
I should not fear the foe then -
I should not fear the fight!
