That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.(1)
    Nothing farther then he uttered(2)—not a feather then he fluttered—
    Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before—
On the morrow he will leave me(3), as my Hopes have flown before.”
            Then the bird said “Nevermore.”"

2. The causal rhyming undermines the dark tone of the writing
3. Shows lost love, since The Raven is based on Poe's lost love Elizabeth.]]> 2018-10-31 15:00:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dwpbeach/124fvl9wnrup/wish/299015518 Works Cited dwpbeach https://padlet.com/dwpbeach/124fvl9wnrup/wish/299020533 - 1882-1962, Bergh Arthur.
