: Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
: Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore

"a midnight dreary" (dreary also = sad):
ramjep Hurgh 'ej 'IQ
ramjep 'IQ 'ej Hurgh
"volume of forgotten lore"
Sov tIQ qelbogh paq

Sov ngo' ngaSbogh paq
<which talk of forgotten lore>
Sov lIjlu'bogh qelbogh paq'e'
Sov lIjpu'bogh vay' qelbogh paq'e'
(Tht is, if a {-bogh} clause can be the object of another {-bogh} clause. But
if legal, these are much too long; though they do scan nicely.)
