[00:00:00] The Raven - Basil Rathbone/Edgar Allan Poe
[00:00:00] Once upon a midnight dreary
[00:00:03] While I pondered weak and weary
[00:00:06] Over many a quaint
[00:00:07] And curious volume of forgotten lore
[00:00:10] While I nodded
[00:00:11] Nearly napping
[00:00:13] Suddenly there came a tapping
[00:00:14] As of some one gently rapping
[00:00:16] Rapping at my chamber door
[00:00:18] "'Tis some visitor " I muttered
[00:00:20] "tapping at my chamber door
[00:00:22] Only this and nothing more "
[00:00:25] Ah distinctly I remember
[00:00:29] It was in the bleak December
[00:00:31] And each separate dying ember wrought
[00:00:34] It's ghost upon the floor
[00:00:36] Eagerly I wished the morrow
[00:00:38] Vainly I had sought to borrow
[00:00:40] From my books surcease of sorrow
[00:00:44] Sorrow for the lost Lenore
[00:00:47] For the rare and radiant maiden
[00:00:49] Whom the angels name Lenore-
[00:00:52] Nameless here for evermore
[00:00:55] And the silken sad
[00:00:56] Uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
[00:00:59] Thrilled me filled me
[00:01:01] With fantastic terrors never felt before;
[00:01:04] So that now to still the beating of my heart
[00:01:06] I stood repeating
[00:01:07] "'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door
[00:01:10] Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door
[00:01:13] This it is and nothing more "
[00:01:16] Presently my soul grew stronger
[00:01:18] Hesitating then no longer
[00:01:19] "Sir " said I "or Madam
[00:01:22] Truly your forgiveness I implore;
[00:01:23] But the fact is I was napping
[00:01:25] And so gently you came rapping
[00:01:26] And so faintly you came tapping
[00:01:28] Tapping at my chamber door
[00:01:29] That I scarce was sure I heard you"
[00:01:31] Here I opened wide the door
[00:01:35] Darkness there and nothing more
[00:01:39] Deep into that darkness peering
[00:01:41] Long I stood there wondering fearing
[00:01:45] Doubting dreaming dreams no mortal
[00:01:47] Ever dared to dream before
[00:01:49] But the silence was unbroken
[00:01:53] And the stillness gave no token
[00:01:56] And the only word
[00:01:57] There spoken was the whispered word "Lenore"
[00:02:03] This I whispered
[00:02:05] And an echo murmured back the word "Lenore "-
[00:02:09] Merely this and nothing more
[00:02:12] Back into the chamber turning
[00:02:13] All my soul within me burning
[00:02:15] Soon again I heard a tapping
[00:02:17] Somewhat louder than before
[00:02:19] "Surely " said I "surely
[00:02:21] That is something at my window lattice:
[00:02:23] Let me see then
[00:02:23] What thereat is and this mystery explore-
[00:02:25] Let my heart be still a moment
[00:02:27] And this mystery explore;-
[00:02:28] 'Tis the wind and nothing more"
[00:02:30] Open here I flung the shutter
[00:02:32] When with many a flirt and flutter
[00:02:36] In there stepped a stately Raven of
[00:02:39] The saintly days of yore;
[00:02:41] Not the least obeisance made he
[00:02:43] Not a minute stopped or stayed he;
[00:02:45] But with mien of lord or lady
[00:02:48] Perched above my chamber door-
[00:02:51] Perched upon a bust of Pallas
[00:02:52] Just above my chamber door
[00:02:55] Perched and sat and nothing more
[00:03:00] Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling
[00:03:04] By the grave and stern decorum of
[00:03:05] The countenance it wore
[00:03:07] "Though thy crest be shorn and shaven
[00:03:10] Thou " I said "art sure no craven
[00:03:13] Ghastly grim and ancient Raven wandering
[00:03:15] From the Nightly shore-
[00:03:17] Tell me what thy lordly name is on
[00:03:20] The Night's Plutonian shore "
[00:03:22] Quoth the Raven "Nevermore "
[00:03:27] Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl
[00:03:29] To hear discourse so plainly
[00:03:32] Though its answer little meaning
[00:03:33] Little relevancy bore;
[00:03:34] For we cannot help agreeing
[00:03:37] That no living human being
[00:03:39] Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird
[00:03:41] Above his chamber door-
[00:03:43] Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust
[00:03:46] Above his chamber door
[00:03:48] With such name as "Nevermore "
[00:03:51] But the Raven
[00:03:52] Sitting lonely on the placid bust spoke only
[00:03:55] That one word as if his soul in
[00:03:58] That one word he did outpour
[00:04:00] Nothing further then he uttered
[00:04:03] Not a feather then he fluttered-
[00:04:05] Till I scarcely more than muttered
[00:04:07] "Other friends have flown before-
[00:04:10] On the morrow he will leave me
[00:04:13] As my hopes have flown before "
[00:04:16] Then the bird said "Nevermore "
[00:04:21] Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken
[00:04:24] "Doubtless " said I
[00:04:25] "what it utters is its only stock and store
[00:04:29] Caught from some unhappy master
[00:04:33] Whom unmerciful Disaster
[00:04:35] Followed fast and followed faster
[00:04:37] Till his songs one burden bore-
[00:04:39] Till the dirges of his Hope
[00:04:41] That melancholy burden bore
[00:04:42] Of 'Never- nevermore' "
[00:04:47] But the Raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling
[00:04:50] Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird
[00:04:53] And bust and door;
[00:04:56] Then upon the velvet sinking
[00:04:57] I betook myself to linking
[00:05:00] Fancy unto fancy thinking
[00:05:03] What this ominous bird of yore
[00:05:06] What this grim ungainly ghastly
[00:05:10] Gaunt and ominous bird of yore
[00:05:12] Meant in croaking "Nevermore "
[00:05:17] This I sat engaged in guessing
[00:05:18] But no syllable expressing
[00:05:19] To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned
[00:05:22] Into my bosom's core;
[00:05:24] This and more I sat divining
[00:05:27] With my head at ease reclining
[00:05:30] On the cushion's velvet lining
[00:05:32] That the lamp-light gloated o'er
[00:05:34] But whose velvet violet lining
[00:05:36] With the lamp-light gloating o'er
[00:05:38] She shall press ah nevermore
[00:05:43] Then methought the air grew denser
[00:05:47] Perfumed from an unseen censer
[00:05:49] Swung by Seraphim
[00:05:52] Whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor
[00:05:55] "Wretch " I cried "thy God hath lent thee
[00:05:59] By these angels he hath sent thee
[00:06:01] Respite- respite and nepenthe
[00:06:04] From thy memories of Lenore
[00:06:06] Quaff oh quaff this kind nepenthe
[00:06:10] And forget this lost Lenore "
[00:06:14] Quoth the Raven "Nevermore "
[00:06:18] "Prophet " said I "thing of evil
[00:06:20] Prophet still if bird or devil
[00:06:22] Whether Tempter sent
[00:06:23] Or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore
[00:06:25] Desolate yet all undaunted
[00:06:26] On this desert land enchanted
[00:06:28] On this home by Horror haunted
[00:06:30] Tell me truly I implore
[00:06:32] Is there- is there balm in Gilead
[00:06:34] Tell me- tell me I implore "
[00:06:37] Quoth the Raven "Nevermore "
[00:06:40] "Prophet " said I "thing of evil
[00:06:43] Prophet still if bird or devil
[00:06:44] By that Heaven that bends above us
[00:06:46] By that God we both adore
[00:06:48] Tell this soul with sorrow laden if
[00:06:51] Within the distant Aidenn
[00:06:52] It shall clasp a sainted maiden
[00:06:54] Whom the angels name Lenore
[00:06:56] Clasp a rare and radiant maiden
[00:06:59] Whom the angels name Lenore "
[00:07:02] Quoth the Raven "Nevermore "
[00:07:05] "Be that word our sign in parting
[00:07:07] Bird or fiend " I shrieked upstarting
[00:07:09] "Get thee back into the tempest
[00:07:11] And the Night's Plutonian shore
[00:07:13] Leave no black plume as a token of
[00:07:15] That lie thy soul hath spoken
[00:07:17] Leave my loneliness unbroken
[00:07:18] Quit the bust above my door
[00:07:21] Take thy beak from out my heart
[00:07:23] And take thy form from off my door "
[00:07:27] Quoth the Raven "Nevermore "
[00:07:33] And the Raven never flitting
[00:07:37] Still is sitting still is sitting
[00:07:40] On the pallid bust of Pallas
[00:07:42] Just above my chamber door
[00:07:45] And his eyes have all the seeming
[00:07:47] Of a demon's that is dreaming
[00:07:49] And the lamp-light o'er him streaming
