"I am growing handsome very fast indeed! I expect I shall be the belle of Amherst when I reach my 17t..." — Emily Dickinson
I am growing handsome very fast indeed! I expect I shall be the belle of Amherst when I reach my 17th year. I don't doubt that I shall have perfect crowds of admirers at that age. Then how I shall delight to make them await my bidding, and with what delight shall I witness their suspense while I make my final decision.
