-
Beneath the vine clad eavesB
Whose shadows fall beforeC
Thy lowly cottage doorC
Under the lilac's tremulous leavesB
Within thy snowy clasped handD
The purple flowers it boreC
Last eve in dreams I saw thee standD
Like queenly nymph from Fairy landD
Enchantress of the flowery wandE
Most beauteous IsadoreF

-
And when I bade the dreamG
Upon thy spirit fleeH
Thy violet eyes to meH
Upturned did overflowing seemG
With the deep untold delightI
Of Love's serenityH
Thy classic brow like lilies whiteI
And pale as the Imperial NightI
Upon her throne with stars bedightI
Enthralled my soul to theeH
-
IIIA
-
Ah ever I beholdI
Thy dreamy passionate eyesJ
Blue as the languid skiesJ
Hung with the sunset's fringe of goldI
Now strangely clear thine image growsK
And olden memoriesL
Are startled from their long reposeK
Like shadows on the silent snowsK
When suddenly the night wind blowsK
Where quiet moonlight liesJ

-
Like music heard in dreamsN
Like strains of harps unknownO
Of birds for ever flownO
Audible as the voice of streamsN
That murmur in some leafy dellP
I hear thy gentlest toneO
And Silence cometh with her spellP
Like that which on my tongue doth dwellP
When tremulous in dreams I tellP
My love to thee aloneO
-
VM
-
In every valley heardI
Floating from tree to treeM
Less beautiful to meM
The music of the radiant birdI
Than artless accents such as thineQ
Whose echoes never fleeM
Ah how for thy sweet voice I pineQ
For uttered in thy tones benignQ
Enchantress this rude name of mineQ
Doth seem a melodyM

Edgar Allan Poe
