a visitor
by Edgar Allen Poe (adapted excerpt)
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and
weary
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping suddenly there came a
tapping
As of some one gently rapping rapping at my chamber door.
Tis some visitor,' muttered, tapping at my chamber door-
Only this, and nothing more.
Ah distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December
And each separate dying ember wrought its form upon the
floor
Eagerly I wished the morrow: -- vainly I had sought 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 evermore,
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me filled me with fantastic terrors never felt
before
So that now, to still the beating of my heart. I stood repeating
Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door-
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door-
This it is, and nothing more.
