Edgar Allan Poe: Citáty v angličtine
"Dreamland", st. 1 (1845).
Kontext: By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an Eidolon, named NIGHT,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule —
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of SPACE — out of TIME.

My heart to joy at the same tone —
And all I lov'd — I lov'd alone —”
