MOTIFS.

Poe wrote an elaborate essay on his
methods In writing ''rhe Raven" Ac-
rording TO his story. he built Il up
gradually on fixed principles. taking for
mis- corner stone the word 'nevermore."
II was an ingenious essay-and no one
believes It. But many people have be-
lieved that Poe drew his inspiration for
THE Raven" from some other poem; he
has even been accused OF translating
Il bodily from the Persian. IA language
In which he Vas proficient. Current
Literature points out probable source
Df the Inspiration OF THE Raven" II
'ays:
",rhere In singular suggestion OF
Shelley. which no one seems TO have
aoticed hitherto. In the following lines;
Eagerly wished the morrow; valnly l
had sought to borrow
From my books surcease OF sorrow
sorrow for the lost Lenore.
''The earlier lines, by Shelley. which
ocour In a Lament are these;
My heart each day desires the morrow;
Sleep itself Is turned to sorrow;
Vainly would my winter borrow
Sunny leaves from any bough.
at Is difficult TO avoid the suspicion
that Poe received from this his first
mint OF the metrical form OF The
Raven. II not also on inspiration OF Its
