Poe

Famous quotes containing the word poe:

    While the stars that oversprinkle
    All the heavens, seem to twinkle
    With a crystalline delight;
    Keeping time, time, time,
    In a sort of Runic rhyme,
    To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
    From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    It glows with the light
    Of the love of my Annie—
    With the thought of the light
    Of the eyes of my Annie.
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    And we passed to the end of a vista,
    But were stopped by the door of a tomb—
    By the door of a legended tomb;
    And I said—” What is written, sweet sister,
    On the door of this legended tomb?”
    She replied—”Ulalume—Ulalume!—
    ‘Tis the vault of thy lost Ulalume!”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
