THIS OWL.
A G•PITAL PARODY OR stn. roes airtr.
Once upon a midnight dreary, listening until I was
weary,
Tea ghostly guttural noise, which was a fe flow-lud
er's snore,
All at once I heard a flapping, flapping, flapping, flap
ping, flapping,
Such a strange unearthly flapping, just outside my
chamber door.
"Sure; there's somthing there," I muttered, "flapping
at my chamber door—
Pshaw! fancy-- , nothing more.
Then 1: lay a moment thinking, scarcely breathing.
scarcely winking.
While the flapping still continued something softer
than before,—
Thinking that, tho' past denying what is said of fan•
cy's flying,—
F lying often no one knows where—yet who ever thought
before,—
Fancy's wing*, were such as could flip-flap against a
chamber door!"
"Then it must be something more

repeating
'Tis some visiter entreating entrance at my chamber

Then my courage soon grew stronger; hesitating than
n longer,
“Sir," said I, "or Madam, truly your forgiveness I.

But the fact is, there's a lodger in the next room, and
the codger
Keep up such an everlasting, constant, and oontinual
snore,
That I wasn't sure I heard you"—hers I opened aside
the dior t
Darknesa there. and nothing more
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there,
wondering, fearing.
And expel iencing such a feeling as I never felt before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave
no token,—
Nought by any one was spoken—nought I heard ex
cept that endte,—
And the darkness deemed to echo back the everlasting
May I hear it nevermore!
Then into my chamber turning, where my lamp was
dimly burning,
Soon 1 though I heard the. flapping even louder thza
before;
"Surely." said I,
" surely that is something at my
window lattice!
But perhaps it but a bat is—this mystery 1 will ex•
plore
If it cost me two-and•sixpence, I this mystery will ex•
plore
'Tis the wind, and nothing more."
Open here I flung the shutter, when with many a flirt
and flutter
In there stepped a staring owl. one of tho saintly days
of yore;
But he made no o-he-i-sance, altho' without leave or
license
f 1 directly perched himself upon a box above my
(km.—
Perched upon n bursted bank-box just above my them
ber dour—
Perched, and aat, and nothing more.
'Sure, this is a strange proceeding, inconsistent with
go•ai breeding:—
Such a Vit‘ilPr BA you I think I never had befove;—
If to you it all the some IS, please to tell me what your

Likewise what on girth your game is, or, Sirthol,there

Clooth the owl (lien, "nevermore."
Much I marvelled this ungainly bird to hear discourse
so plainly,
Though 'tis true his answer sounduri very like nay
neighbor's snore;
And I couldn't help a-thinking, us I saw the creature
winking,
That no human being ever yet had mean above his
door,
Bird or beat upon the bunted baud-box o'er his chum
byr. door,
With such name as "nevermore."
But the owl he looked so lonely, saying that word and
that only.
That a thimhlr-full of whis%ey I did speedily outpour
in a tes•cup on the table, which, as well as I was able.
I invited him to drink of, saying there was plenty
more—
But the owl he shook his head, and threw the whiskey
on the floor,
Plainly saying, "uovermose!"
"What , a temperance owl, by thunder! Well, indeed
'nit no great wonder ;
Re has doubtless just now come from out the "Taber•
uncle" door.
Where he's heard a temperance lecture, and has seen
a fearful picture
Of the consequence of running up a whi s key-t o ddy

For the purnos49 of beguiling It kw' moments. I vat
smiling
At Ihih grim, ungainly. ghohtly.looking owl above my
doom:—
On a chair with or.e leg broken, while no syllable was
spoken,
I sat guessing and surmising what this ominous owl of
yore,
What this funny, fat, and feathered erasure that had
been with Noah.
Meant in squeaking "Nevermore."
But in vain was all my guessing, still no syllable ex.

I determined on undressing, and to go to bed once
