The Bells - Edgar Allen Poe

This quote was added by malevolarky
Hear the loud alarum bells - brazen bells! What a tale of terror, now, their turbulency tells! In the startled ear of night, how they scream out their affright! Too much horrified to speak, they can only shriek, shriek, out of tune, in a clamorous appealing to the mercy of the fire, in a mad expostulation with the deaf and frantic fire, leaping higher, higher, higher, with a desperate desire, and a resolute endeavor now - now to sit, or never, by the side of the pale - faced moon.
