* Poe's poems often use poetic license: He may adjust syllable counts for rhyme and meter, making it a bit less straightforward than just counting syllables in a standard way.
* Syllable count can vary based on pronunciation: Some words have multiple possible pronunciations, changing the syllable count.
However, we can make a good estimate:
* The poem has 16 lines.
* Each line typically has 8-10 syllables.
* That means the poem likely has between 128-160 syllables.
To get a precise count, you'd need to analyze each line carefully, considering poetic license and pronunciation.
