                                              THE RAVENTHE RAVEN 



     Once upon a midnight dreary�察�while I pondered�察�weak and weary�察�Over 

many   a   quaint   and   curious   volume   of   forgotten   lore   While   I   nodded�察�

nearly   napping�察  �suddenly   there   came   a   tapping�察 �As   of   some   one   gently 

rapping�察  �rapping       at   my   chamber   door。   ;'Tis   some   visiter�察─  �I      muttered�察�

;tapping at my chamber doorOnly this and nothing more。; 

     Ah�察  �distinctly   I   remember   it   was   in   the   bleak   December�察  �And   each 

separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor。 Eagerly I wished 

the morrow��vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of 

sorrowsorrow         for   the  lost   Lenore     For   the   rare   and   radiant    maiden 

whom the angels name LenoreNameless here for evermore。 

     And   the   silken sad   uncertain   rustling   of   each   purple   curtain Thrilled 

mefilled me with fantastic terrors never felt before�察�So that now�察�to still 

the   beating   of   my   heart�察  �I   stood   repeating   ;'Tis   some   visiter   entreating 

entrance at my chamber door Some late visiter entreating entrance at my 

chamber door��This it is and nothing more。; 

     Presently my soul grew stronger�察�hesitating then no longer�察 �Sir�察─�said I�察�

;or Madam�察�truly your forgiveness I implore�察�But the fact is I was napping�察�

and so gently you came rapping�察�And so faintly you came tapping�察�tapping 

at my chamber door�察�That I scarce was sure I heard you;here I opened 

wide the doorDarkness there and nothing more。 

     Deep into that darkness peering�察�long I stood there wondering�察�fearing�察�

Doubting�察�dreaming   dreams   no   mortals   ever dared   to dream  before�察  �But 

the silence  was   unbroken�察�and the stillness gave   no   token�察�And   the only 

word there spoken was the whispered word�察 �Lenore�拭─�This I whispered�察�

and an echo murmured back the word�察 �Lenore� �Merely this and nothing 

more。 

     Back into the chamber turning�察�all my soul within me burning�察�Soon 

again   I   heard   a   tapping   something   louder   than   before。   ;Surely�察─  �said   I�察�

;surely   that   is   something   at   my   window   lattice�察  �Let   me   see�察  �then�察  �what 

thereat is and this mystery explore Let my heart be still a moment and 

this mystery explore��'Tis the wind and nothing more。 

     Open here I flung the shutter�察�when�察�with many a flirt and flutter�察�In 

there   stepped   a   stately   Raven   of   the   saintly   days   of   yore。   Not   the   least 

obeisance made he�察�not a minute stopped or stayed he�察�But�察�with mien of

lord   or   lady�察  �perched   above   my   chamber   door   Perched   upon   a   bust   of 

Pallas just above my chamber doorPerched�察�and sat�察�and nothing more。 

     Then the ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling�察�By the grave 

and stern decorum of the countenance it wore�察 �Though thy crest be shorn 

and shaven�察�thou�察─  �I   said�察 �art   sure no   craven�察�Ghastly  grim  and   ancient 

Raven wandering from the Nightly shore Tell me what thy lordly name 

is on the Night's Plutonian shore� �Quoth the Raven�察 �Nevermore。; 

     Much   I   marvelled   this   ungainly   fowl   to   hear   discourse   so   plainly�察�

Though   its   answer   little   meaninglittle   relevancy   bore�察  �For   we   cannot 

help agreeing that no living human being Ever yet was blessed with seeing 

bird   above   his   chamber   door   Bird   or   beast   upon   the   sculptured   bust 

above his chamber door��With such name as ;Nevermore。; 

     But the Raven�察�sitting lonely on that placid bust�察�spoke only That one 

word�察�as if its soul in that one word he did outpour Nothing farther then he 

uttered�察�not a feather then he fluttered Till I scarcely more than muttered�此�

;Other friends have flown before On the morrow he will leave me�察�as my 

Hopes have flown before。;Then the bird said ;Nevermore。; 

     Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken�察 �Doubtless�察─�

said   I�察   �what    it  utters  is  its   only   stock  and    store�察 �Caught     from   some 

unhappy   master   whom   unmerciful   Disaster   Followed   fast   and   followed 

faster   till   his   songs   one   burden   bore   Till   the   dirges   of   his   Hope   that 

melancholy burden boreOf 'Nevernevermore。'; 

     But the Raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling�察�Straight I 

wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door�察�Then�察�upon 

the velvet sinking�察�I betook myself to linking Fancy unto fancy�察�thinking 

what this ominous bird of yore What this grim�察�ungainly�察�ghastly�察�gaunt�察�

and ominous bird of yoreMeant in croaking ;Nevermore。; 

     This I sat engaged in guessing�察�but no syllable expressing To the fowl 

whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core�察�This and more I sat 

divining�察�with my head at ease reclining On the cushion's velvet lining that 

the lamp´light gloated o'er�察�But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp´ 

light gloating o'erShe shall press�察�ah�察�nevermore� �

     Then�察�methought�察�the air grew denser�察�perfumed from an unseen censer 

Swung by Seraphim whose foot´falls tinkled on the tufted floor。 ;Wretch�察─�

kind      nepenthe        and     forget      this    lost     Lenore� �Quoth           the    Raven�察�

out   my   heart�察  �and   take   thy   form   from   off   my   door� �Quoth   the   Raven�察�

     And   the   Raven�察  �never   flitting�察  �still   is   sitting�察  �still   is   sitting   On   the 

pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door�察�And his eyes have all 

the   seeming   of   a   demon's   that   is   dreaming And   the   lamp´light   o'er   him 

streaming   throws   his   shadows   on   the   floor�察�And   my   soul   from   out   that 

shadow that lies floating on the floorShall be liftednevermore� �

             The Masque of the Red Death 



        The   ;Red   Death;   had   long   devastated   the   country。         No   pestilence 

had ever been so fatal�察�or so hideous。              Blood was its Avatar and its seal 

the redness and the horror of blood。              There were sharp pains�察�and sudden 

dizziness�察�and then profuse bleeding at the pores�察�with dissolution。                         The 

scarlet   stains   upon   the   body  and   especially   upon   the   face   of   the   victim�察�

were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy 

of his fellow´men。          And the whole seizure�察�progress and termination of 

the disease�察�were the incidents of half an hour。 

     But     the  Prince    Prospero      was    happy    and    dauntless     and   sagacious。 

When his dominions were half depopulated�察�he summoned to his presence 

a   thousand   hale   and   light´hearted   friends   from   among   the   knights   and 

dames of his court�察�and with these retired to the deep seclusion of one of 

his castellated abbeys。          This was an extensive and magnificent structure�察�

the creation of the prince's own eccentric yet august taste。                     A strong and 

lofty   wall   girdled   it   in。   This   wall   had   gates   of   iron。     The   courtiers�察�

having   entered�察  �brought   furnaces   and   massy   hammers   and   welded   the 

bolts。     They resolved to leave means neither of ingress nor egress to the 

sudden   impulses   of   despair   or   of   frenzy   from   within。         The   abbey   was 

amply      provisioned。        With     such    precautions      the   courtiers     might     bid 

defiance to contagion。           The external world could take care of itself。                 In 

the meantime it was folly to grieve�察�or to think。                 The prince had provided 

all    the   appliances
