Amongst the halls, Edgar dwelled alone -

The boy with face, as grim as stone.

A ray of light! Shines though the fog -

An angel ascended, from depths of bog.

Shrouded in grief, the garish stings!

Ensuing a storm, a Raven sings.

Has it strength enough to last?

Heave the Raven from its clasp?

Poor tortured soul ; seems meek and mild.

Be wary!! This Raven is quickly riled.

Unknown be it, what lurks inside -

Reach with care ... He will confide.
