Select the correct text in the passage which two pairs of lines in this excerpt from "the raven" by edgar allan poe best show that the speaker is still haunted by the memories of lenore? but the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling, straight i wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door then, upon the velvet sinking, i betook myself to linking fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore- what this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore meant in croaking "nevermore." this i sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing to the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core, this and more i sat divining, with my head at ease reclining on the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp light gloated o'er. but whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er, she shall press, ah, nevermore! then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer swung by seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor "wretch," i cried, "thy god hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee respite-espite and nepenthe from thy memories of lenore! quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost lenore!
