Back from the cordial Grave I drag thee — Faust

Dickinson used grave's various meanings in her poems. Among them, grave as a steward is rare and hard to solve. We need to find a cordial steward to match the poem's description.

Back from the cordial Grave I drag thee
He shall not take thy Hand
Nor put his spacious arm around thee
That none can understand

(F.1649/J.1625)

[1] Grave:: a steward _{(OED grave n.3)}, and death. The devil Mephistopheles (a symbol of death) became Faust's steward to seduce him to hell. cordial:: warm, affectionate, the way Mephistopheles treated Faust. thee:: Faust. I:: an angel; Faust was saved by angel in Goethe's version of Faust; in Christopher Marlowe's version Faustus, he went to hell. Dickinson's library contained Goethe's version.
[2] He, take thy Hand:: Mephistopheles took Faust's hand to visit the world.
[3] spacious arm:: enormous power of the devil.
[4] none can understand:: Faust wanted to "learn what it is that holds the world together in its inmost core," (Faust: A Dramatic Poem By Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1859 Boston, the same version in Dickinson's family library). Mephistopheles was supposed to show Faust the world's "inmost core" that none can understand.
