The Raven
  • 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 visiter," I muttered, "tapping at my
    chamber door---
  • Only this, and nothing more."
