Poem 1354 [F1381] "The Heart is the Capital of the Mind" Analysis by David Preest [Poem]

Emily asserts the unity of 'Heart' and 'Mind,' perhaps much the same unity as that of soul and identity in poem 1351. But it is the Heart which is the capital of this 'single Continent,' this nation with a population of one, yourself.
