Corazón! Calma un instante y aclaremos el misterio... » La ventana abrí—y con rítmico aleteo y garbo extraño entró un cuervo majestuoso de la sacra edad de antaño. Sin pararse ni un instante ni señales dar de susto, con aspecto señorial, fué a posarse sobre un busto de Minerva que ornamenta de mi puerta el cabezal; sobre el busto que de Palas la figura representa, fué y posose—¡y nada más! Trocó entonces el negro pájaro en sonrisas mi tristeza con su grave, torva y seria decorosa gentileza; y le dije: «Aunque la cresta calva llevas, de seguro no eres cuervo nocturnal, viejo, infausto cuervo oscuro, vagabundo en la tiniebla...
ULALUME I Los cielos cenicientos y sombríos, crespas las hojas, lívidas y mustias, y era una noche del doliente octubre del tiempo inmemorial entre las brumas, era en las tristes márgenes del Auber, el lago tenebroso de aguas mudas, ante los bosques tétricos del Weir, la región espectral de la pavura. II A solas con mi alma, recorría avenida titánica y oscura de fúnebres cipreses... con mi alma, con Psiquis, alma que, al misterio turba... Era la edad del corazón volcánico como las llamas del Yanek sulfúreas, como las lavas del Yanek que brotan allá del polo en la región nocturna.
Todo se apaga y se extingue menos tus hondas miradas, tus dos ojos donde arde tu alma! Y sólo veo entre sombras aquellos ojos... ¡Oh, amada! ¡Qué tristezas extrahumanas, qué irreales leyendas de amor relatan! ¡Qué misteriosos dolores, qué sublimes esperanzas, qué mudas renunciaciones expresan aquellos ojos que en las sombras fijan en mí sus miradas! IV ¡Noche oscura, ya Diana entre turbios nubarrones hundió la faz plateada; y tú sola en medio de la avenida funeraria, te deslizas ideal, mística y blanca, te deslizas y te alejas incorpórea cual fantasma; sólo flotan tus miradas, sólo tus ojos perennes, tus ojos de hondas miradas fijos quedan!
