Music
"Shadows
of shadows passing. It is now 1831, and as always I am
absorbed with a delicate thought. It is how poetry has indefinite
sensations, to
which end music is inessential. Since the comprehension of sweet sound
is our
most indefinite conception, music, when combined with a pleasurable
idea, is
poetry. Music without the idea is simply music. Without music or an
intriguing
idea, colour becomes pallor, man becomes carcass, home becomes
catacomb, and the
dead are but for a moment motionless."
E. A. Poe, The Fall of the
House of Usher
