    Of life be kindled, I doubt,
    With our last air ‘twill be breath’d out,

    “Some sepulcher, remote, alone,
    Against whose portal she hath thrown,
    In childhood, many an idle stone—
    Some tomb from out whose sounding door
    She ne’er shall force an echo more,
    Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
    It was the dead who groaned within.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
