The Pit and the Pendulum
I could have clasped the red walls to my bosom as a garment of eternal peace. "Death," I said, "any death but that of the pit!" Fool! might I have not known that into the pit it was the object of the burning iron to urge me?

The Pit and the Pendulum
And then there stole into my fancy, like a rich musical note, the thought of what sweet rest there must be in the grave.

The Pit and the Pendulum
In the deepest slumber-no! In delirium-no! In a swoon-no! In death-no! even in the grave all is not lost.

The Pit and the Pendulum
In death - no! even in the grave all is not lost. Else there is no immortality for man. Arousing from the most profound slumbers, we break the gossamer web of some dream. Yet in a second afterward, {so frail may that web have been} we remember not that we have dreamed."
