<em>"...And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain </em>

<em>Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before; </em>

<em>So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating, </em>

<em>"'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door— </em>

<em>Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;— </em>

<em>               This it is and nothing more...."</em>
