I was thinking of "I Have Been One Acquainted With the Night", yep. Also I have a feeling that Angelus would read Charles Baudelaire and his ilk -- crazy morbid French poets! There's a bit of Baudelaire in my World Poetry compilation, and it's rather like Eliot on steroids. Some of it is very beautiful (particularly for those of us who enjoy gothic imagery), and some is -- morbid, as I said. And somewhat deranged. (Also French. Ha ha.) I mean, really, how does a vampire spend the centuries when they're not -- wreaking havoc and suchlike? Clearly, they must read poetry. (I would. :p)

Not only can I see River quoting that, I can see her singing it, in a sing-song, absent-minded sort of way.
