, wa’.e I pondered, . .nry, ~ y a qua in i and cunous volume of forgot ten lore, , While I nodded, oeer'.y napping, sudden,y there came » rapping, A* of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “Tm some visiter,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door — Oniy this, and nothing more.” > Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak De cember, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrowvainly I had tried to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost’Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for ever more. And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each pur ple curtain Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt belbre ; So that now, to still the beating of ray heart, I stood repeating «’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door— Some late visitor entreating entrance at my cham ber door; — This it is, and nothing more.” Presently my sou] grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, “Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness 1 implore; But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door, That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I open ed wide the door; — Darkness there, and nothing more. Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no moital ever dared to dream before; But the si.ence was unbrokeD, and the darkness gave no token, And the only word there 6poken was the whispered word “Lenore*” This I whispered, and an echo murmured bark the word “Lenore!” Merely this, and nothing more. Then into the chamber turning, all my soul within roe burning, Sood 1 heard again a tapping somewhat louder than before. “Surely,” said I, “surely that is something at my window lattice; Let me see, then, what there is, and this mystery explore— Let my heart be still s moment and this mystery explore;— ’Tis the wind, and nothing more.” Open here 1 flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter. In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore; Not the least obe since made he; not an instant stopped or stayed he; But with mien o( lord or lady, perched above my chamber door— Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my cham ber door— Perched, and sat, and nothing more. Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling. By the grave and stern decorum of the counte nance it wore, “Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” 1 said, “are sure no craven, Ghastly grim and ancient raven wanderingfiom the Nightly shore— Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore !” Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to her dis course so plainlv, Though its answer little meaning—little relevancy bore; For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being Ever vet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door, Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door— With such a name as "Nevermore.” But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour, Nothing farther than he uttered—not a feather then he fluttered— Till I scarcely more than muttered, “Other friends have flown before— On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore - ” Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken, “Doubtless,” said I, “w hat it utters ia its only stock and store, Caught from some unhappy master whom unmer ciful Disaster Followed fast and followed faster—so when Hope he would adjure, Stern Despair returned, instead of the sweet Hope he dared adjure, That sad answer, "Nevermore!” But the raven still beguiling all ray sad sou! into smiling, Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust, and door; Then upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of vore— What this grim’ ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and om inous bird of yore Meant in croaking “Nevermore.” j Thus I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable ex pressing To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into mv bosom’s core; This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining On the cushion’s velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o’er, Put whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o’er She shall press, ah, nevermore ! Xften, met bought, the air grew denser, peifumed from an unseen censer S-Tungby angel* whose faint foot-fallsfiuk ed or. the tufled floor. ,-vii whom the angels „ rare and raideni maiden whom the angels name Lenore Quoth ihe raven, “Nevermore. “Be that word our sign of parting, bird ot fiend I I shriked, upstarting — “Get thee back into the tempest and the Nights Plutonian shore ! . Leave no black plume as a token of that ,ie thy soul hath spoken ! j Leave my loneliness unbroken I —quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and tase thy form from off my door!” _ M Quoth the raven, “Nevermore. And the raven, never flitlirg, still :$ sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my cham ber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon that is dreaming, And the lamp light o’er him streaming throws bis shadow on the floor; And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lilted—nevermore!
