Recall which two adjectives does the speaker use to describe his mood at the beginning of the poem?

Two other adjectives which seem pertinent to the mood of
Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" include the words "weary" and
"lost."

Once
upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and
weary...

The narrator is both
tired and weak from his long, sleepless nights following the death of his deceased loved
one. He spends the nights reading instead, trying to relieve his mind of his constant
sorrow.

From
my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost
Lenore.

The word "lost" has a
double meaning here. Lenore has died, and the loss of her is overwhelming to him.
Additionally, the narrator is now lost himself: He does not know what to do with himself
without his loving companion.
