"ralegh has backed the maid to a tree
as ireland is backed to england
and drives inland
till all her strands are breathless."
"true, a new mistress now i chase,
the first foe in the field; "
"i'm nobody! who are you?
are you nobody, too?
then there 's a pair of us — don't tell!
they 'd banish us, you know."
"for the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
of the beautiful annabel lee;
and the stars never rise, but i feel the bright eyes
of the beautiful annabel lee;
and so, all the night-tide, i lie down by the side
of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride,
in her sepulchre there by the sea—
in her tomb by the sounding sea."
"hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul,
and sings the tune without the words,
and never stops at all,"
"life is but life, and death but death!
bliss is but bliss, and breath but breath!
and if, indeed, i fail,
at least to know the worst is sweet.
defeat means nothing but defeat,
no drearier can prevail! "
"he gives his harness bells a shake
to ask if there is some mistake.
the only other sound’s the sweep
of easy wind and downy flake."
