Love's Death Conclusion: Eileen Feldman, pianist, with composer, bass-baitone, David Edgar Walther; poems: Emily Dickinson:
​
​7. Eternal Ocean:
As if the Sea should part
And show a further Sea -
And that a further - and the Three - '
But a presumption be -

​Of Periods of Seas -
​Unvisited of -
Themselves the Verge of Seas to be -

Eternity - Eternity - is Those
8. Tender Carpenter: 
A closing of a simple lid
​That opened to the sun
Until the tender Carpenter
Perpetual nail it down -

​9. Apparition:
 
So fleet thou wert, when present -
So infinite - when gone -
An Orient Apparition -
​Remanded of the Morn -
