Read the first stanza from "The Raven."
Which best describes the scene that the author is
setting through the use of imagery in the stanza?
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.
'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber
door-
Only this and nothing more."
The speaker is up late at night reading and hears a
knocking sound.
The speaker is sleeping and is awakened by
someone calling to him.
The speaker is reading a ghost story and imagines
that he sees a ghost.
The speaker is napping and does not hear a visitor
who taps on the door.
