  6. “The Divine Right Of Kings”by Edgar Allen Poe Graham's Magazine, October 1845 The only king by right divine Is Ellen King, and were she mine I'd strive for liberty no more, But hug the glorious chains I wore. Her bosom is an ivory throne, Where tyrant virtue reigns alone ; No subject vice dare interfere, To check the power that governs here.
