Reminds me of the sunken city of Dwarka. What Edgar Allen Poe imagined in this mystical and marvelous poem have happened thousands of years before.

To touch the topic deadly death is dreadful but Edgar Allan Poe not only touched it but produced this miraculous poem. That's why he is considered as one of the all time best poet.

Epic Gothic poem.. born from the dark imagination of Edgar Allan Poe. I particularly like the personification of Death looking, ' gigantically down' from, ' a proud tower in the town'..terrifying!

I love the personification of Death in this poem! It is brilliantly realised by the master of Gothic horror: Edgar Allan Poe.

Down, down that town shall settle hence, , rising from a thousand thrones, Shall do it reverence......impressive lines. Beautiful poem presented by Edgar Allan Poe.
