And dimmer nothings which were real-
(Shadows- and a more shadowy light!
(Tamerlane)
More Quotes from Edgar Allan Poe:
Of what in other worlds shall be - and givenIn beauty by our God, to those alone
Who otherwise would fall from life and Heaven
Drawn by their heart's passion, and that tone,
That high tone of the spirit which hath striven
Though not with Faith - with godliness - whose throne
With desperate energy 't hath beaten down;
Wearing its own deep feeling as a crown.
Edgar Allan Poe
I would define, in brief, the poetry of words as the rhythmical creation of Beauty.
Edgar Allan Poe
But my heart it is brighter
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
Yes, Heaven is thine; but this
Is a world of sweets and sours;
Our flowers are merely- flowers,
And the shadow of thy perfect bliss
Is the sunshine of ours.
Edgar Allan Poe
The rudiment of verse may, possibly, be found in the spondee.
Edgar Allan Poe
