Quote

Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades Past the near meadows, over the still stream, Up the hill-side and now 'tis buried deep In the next valley-glades: Was it a vision, or a waking dream? Fled is that music:--do I wake or sleep?

John Keats

John Keats
Image
Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art-- Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night And watching, with eternal lids apart, Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite.

Dancing music, music sad, Both together, sane and mad.

I don't need the stars in the night I found my treasure All I need is you by my side so shine forever

When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face, Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance, And think that I may never live to trace Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance.
John Keats
Image
I do think better of womankind than to suppose they care whether Mister John Keats five feet high likes them or not.
