[Young Poe]: In the science of the mind there is no point more thrilling than to notice which I never noticed in schools that in our endeavors to recall to memory something long-forgotten we often find ourselves upon the very verge of remembrance without being in the end able to remember Under the intense scrutiny of Ligeia's eyes I have felt the full knowledge and force of their expression and yet been unable to possess it and have felt it leave me as so many other things have left the letter half-read, the bottle half-drunk finding in the commonest objects of the universe a circle of analogies of metaphors for that expression which has been willfully withheld from me the access to the inner soul denied Eyes blazed with a too-glorious effulgence pale fingers transparent, waxen, the hue of the grave Blue veins upon the lofty forehead swelled and sunk impetuously with the tides of deep emotion and I saw that she must die that she was wresting with the dark shadow Her stern nature had impressed me with the belief that, to her death would come without its terrors but not so I groaned in anguish at the pitiable spectacle I would have soothed I would have reasoned But she was amid the most convulsive of writhings Oh, pitiful soul Her voice more gentle, more low, and yet her words grew wilder of meaning I reeled, entranced, to a melody more than mortal She loved me, no doubt and in her bosom love reigned as no ordinary passion But in death only was I impressed with the intensity of her affection Her more than passionate devotion amounted to idolatry How had I deserved to be so blessed and then cursed with the removal of my beloved upon the hour of her most delirious musings In her more than womanly abandonment to a love all unmerited and unworthily bestowed I came to realize the principle of her longing It was a yearning for life
