The Poe Show - Poem: Tamerlane

Transcript

Tynan Portillo presents...featuring the best horror stories of the 19th century...welcome to The Poe Show podcast. Narrated by Tynan Portillo.

Today’s episode, Tamerlane by Edgar Allan Poe.

Kind solace in a dying hour!

Such, father, is not (now) my theme—

I will not madly deem that power

Of Earth may shrive me of the sin

Unearthly pride hath revell’d in—

I have no time to dote or dream:

You call it hope—that fire of fire!
