Question

Read this stanza from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. "'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door— Only this and nothing more." How does what happens in this stanza propel the action in the poem? It gives the speaker a reason to speak to the raven. It introduces the story and sets up the coming events. It resolves the main conflict of the story.
