Edgar Allan Poe
19 januari 1809 - 7 oktober 1849
Gaily bedight,
a gallant knight,
in sunshine and in shadow,
had journeyed long,
singing a song,
in search of Eldorado.
But he grew old -
this knight so bold -
and o'er his heart a shadow
fell, as he found
no spot of ground
that looked like Eldorado.
And, as his strength
failed him at length,
he met a pilgrim shadow -
'Shadow,' said he,
'where can it be -
this land of Eldorado?'
'Over the Mountains
of the Moon,
down the Valley of the Shadow,
ride, boldly ride,'
the shade replied, -
'if you seek for Eldorado!'
