And the mist upon the hill
Shadowy, shadowy, yet unbroken,
Is a symbol and a token.

More Quotes from Edgar Allan Poe:
When Hope, the eagle that tower'd, could seeNo cliff beyond him in the sky,
His pinions were bent droopingly-
And homeward turn'd his soften'd eye.
Edgar Allan Poe

Than all of the many
Stars in the sky,
For it sparkles with Annie-
It glows with the light
Of the love of my Annie-
With the thought of the light
Of the eyes of my Annie.
Edgar Allan Poe
Which fall'st into the soul like rain
Upon the Siroc-wither'd plain,
And, failing in thy power to bless,
But leav'st the heart a wilderness!

Edgar Allan Poe

Is a world of sweets and sours;
Our flowers are merely- flowers,
And the shadow of thy perfect bliss
Is the sunshine of ours.
