heart Annabel Lee heart
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;---
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
She was a child and I was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love---
I and my Annabel Lee--
With a love that the wing’ed seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud at night
Chilling me Annabel Lee;
So that her high-born kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulcher
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me;
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of a cloud chilling
And killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we---
Of those far wiser than we---
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can never dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:---
For the moon never beams without brining me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride
In her sepulcher there by the sea---
heart In her tomb by the side of the sea. heart
