Todd’s garden’ (Jewett, 1896 ). Like the herbs, Mrs. Todd exhibits an aptitude for dealing with things such as love – as shown by her affection towards William’s bride- and loss- shown by her grief and compassion over the death of a contemporary.
The poem by Emily Dickinson too, is strewn with an intimate connection. As the poem goes, “I never saw a moor, I never saw the sea. Yet know I how the heather looks and what a wave must be. I never spoke with God, nor visited in heaven. Yet certain am I of the spot as if the chart were given” (Dickinson, 1755). Jewett and Dickinson relays the same message of faith but from different perspectives- Jewett for interpersonal relationship and Dickinson for our relationship with God. Yet if we are to analyze the passage of Dickinson, “To lose one’s faith surpasses the loss of an estate, because estates can be replenished, faith cannot” (Dickinson, 1755), we can take the meaning of faith not only to God but to others as well since a poem is generally figurative and is open to different interpretations. With this we can now establish a clear cut connection between the two literary works and that is summarized by the heading of this part of the discussion.
