“ Come! let the burial rite be read, the funeral song be sung! — An anthem for the queenliest dead that ever died so young, — A dirge for her, the doubly dead, in that she died so young. ”

“ Edgar Allan Poe was born in Baltimore in 1811. He graduated at the University of Virginia in 1826; and having spent a year in Europe, he returned to America, and was for a number of years editor of different magazines, among which was the "Broadway Journal." The poem of Lenore was always his favorite, and above his desk always hung the romantic picture of his loved and lost Lenore. He died in Baltimore in 1849. ”
