John Keats
I should write for the mere yearning and fondness I have for the beautiful, even if my night's labors should be burnt every morning and no eye shine upon them.
John Keats
O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, Let it not be among the jumbled heap Of murky buildings: climb with me the steep,-- Nature's observatory--whence the dell, In flowery slopes, its river's crystal swell, May seem a span let me thy vigils keep 'Mongst boughs pavilion'd, where the deer's swift leap Startles the wild bee from the foxglove bell.
John Keats
The air is all softness.
John Keats
Call the world if you please the vale of soul-making. Then you will find out the use of the world.
John Keats
Now a soft kiss - Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss.
John Keats
