Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door—
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
(Poe 37-42)

The bird perches on the bust of Pallas, the Greek goddess of wisdom. How is this a significant literary moment in Poe's poem?

It is a symbol because ravens have symbolized love and a connection with the supernatural.

It is an allusion because ravens symbolized an insight into the future in Greek mythology.

It is a metaphor because ravens have been compared with mystery and signify the unknown.

It is a foreshadowing because ravens have been considered bad omens or signified coming death in art.
