透过黑暗，窥视
我长久地站在那儿
思索，担忧，疑惑...
甚至梦想，梦想前人不敢奢求的梦境
只有寂静，始终如一
---没有任何表征
唯一能听到的低语，“雷诺尔！”
这是我在喃喃自语
“雷诺尔！”，这也是大地低沉的回声
除此，寂静，还是寂静
注：此为《乌鸦》中最为精彩的一段
原文：
The Raven
by Edgar Allen Poe
Deep into that darkness peering,
Long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals
Ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken,
And the stillness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken
Was the whispered word, "Lenore!"
This I whispered, and an echo
Murmured back the word, "Lenore!"
Merely this, and nothing more.
