We are working on musical arrangements of I've got an arrow here by Emily Dickinson and they will be published on a date yet to be decided.

I've got an arrow here;
  Loving the hand that sent it,
I the dart revere.

Fell, they will say, in 'skirmish'!
  Vanquished, my soul will know,
By but a simple arrow
  Sped by an archer's bow.
