The correct answer is: sight and sound.

Indeed, the lexical field of this stanza is full of terms as ebony bird, grave and stern decorum of the countenance, thy crest be shorn and shaven (only through sight the narrator knows all these about the bird). Finally the word, “nevermore”, has a powerful sound effect, magnified by its rhyming repetition throughout the whole poem.

A) Sight and Sound

In “The Raven,” there is much that appeals to sight and sound.  For instance, for sight, there is much described to give readers an excellent visual—<em>ebony bird</em>, <em>sad fancy into smiling</em>, <em>stern decorum</em>, <em>crest be shorn and shaven</em>.  For sound we have the word "Nevermore” that follows the command (imperative statement), “Tell me what thy lordly name is….”
