Which of these stanzas from "the raven" by edgar allan poe represents the speaker's desire to be free from his sorrow and memories of lenore?

1. startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
"doubtless," said i, "what it utters is its only stock and store,
caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore—
till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
of 'never—nevermore.'"

. .

2. then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
swung by seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
"wretch," i cried, "thy god hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee
respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of lenore!
quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost lenore! "
quoth the raven, "nevermore."

. .

3. "prophet! " said i, "thing of evil! —prophet still, if bird or devil!
by that heaven that bends above us—by that god we both adore—
tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant aidenn,
it shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name lenore—
clasp a rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name lenore."
quoth the raven, "nevermore."
