The Eagle

ladyhistory:

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, 

As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door….

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,

In there stepped a stately Eagle of the saintly days of yore;

Quoth the Eagle “AMURICUHHHHHHH.”

Merely this and nothing more.
