“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 tapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“ ‘Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door-
Only this and nothing more. ”
