We are working on musical arrangements of They say that 'time assuages,' by Emily Dickinson and they will be published on a date yet to be decided.

They say that 'time assuages,' —
  Time never did assuage;
An actual suffering strengthens,
  As sinews do, with age.

Time is a test of trouble,
  But not a remedy.
If such it prove, it prove too
  There was no malady.
