Which two phrases in this excerpt from "the raven" by edgar allan poe establish the setting?
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 rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
***t is some visiter," i muttered, "tapping at my chamber door-
only this, and nothing more."
ah, distinctly i remember it was in the bleak december,
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 sorrow-sorrow for the lost lenore-
for the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name lenore
nameless here for evermore,
reset
next
