It was many and many a year ago, m{$tO;c/Q
In a kingdom by the sea, "i{_<;p O
That a maiden there lived whom you may know syW9Hlm
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- :&0yf;>v
And this maiden she lived with no other thought ^8oc^LOa~2
Than to love and be loved by me. `KJYm|@ i
She was a child and I was a child, eMl]td rI
In this kingdom by the sea, -wRyMY_ D
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- Z~phOv
I and my Annabel Lee-- L+~YCat|$U
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven qz=#;&ZU
Coveted her and me. 7?! Z+r

And this was the reason that, long ago, Cs[7% j
In this kingdom by the sea,

So that her high-born kinsman came )y/DGSd
And bore her away from me, x\J;ZiWwW
To shut her up in a sepulchre NBqV0>vR
