1933 1st ed Edgar Allen Poe Tales of Mystery Clarke Illustrated Macabre Occult

“But as, in ethics, evil is a consequence of good, so, in fact, out of joy is sorrow born. Either the memory of past bliss is the anguish of today, or the agonies which are have their origin in the ecstasies which might have been.”
― Edgar Allan Poe, Berenice
