mas sin hacerme sonar en- mi dulce
adorada, Y las estrel'as no alumbran
sin que 20 yea brillar los ojos de ella.
Y asi, durante las horas de Ia noche,
reposo al lado de mi adorada, ide mi
adorada, nj vida y mi esposa! en- ese
sepulcro, cerca del mar, del misterio-
so
Mas nuestro amor, que era tan
grande como IN mundo comparable al
de las gentes de nuestra edad, nues-
tro amor era tan grande, que nj los
angeles en- ell cielo, nj los demonios
bajo el mar, podran desunir mi alma
del alma adorable de mi bella Anna
bel Lee.
Edgar Allan Poe.
