| Stanza 6 |
| Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning, Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before. "Surely," said I, " surely that is something at my window lattice; Let me see, then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore- Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore- Tis the wind and nothing more." |

| Description |
| In this stanza, the speaker hears a tap, this time it was slightly louder and didn't come from the door. Instead, he hears a tap at his window lattice. When he hears this sound, he decides to go to the room where he hears the tap. Then, when he says it is the wind, is to convince himself of it. He doesn't believe it, and to get it in his head he says, "Tis the wind and nothing more." |
