“The Savior must have been a docile Gentleman” — Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson’s nativity poem, “The Savior must have been a docile Gentleman”–

The Savior must have been
A docile Gentleman—
To come so far so cold a Day
For little Fellowmen—

The Road to Bethlehem
Since He and I were Boys
Was leveled, but for that ‘twould be
A rugged Billion Miles—
