John Keats·1795–1821·Romanticism

I am no knight whose foeman dies;No cuirass glistens on my bosom's swell;I am no happy shepherd of the dellWhose lips have trembled with a maiden's eyes;Yet must I dote upon thee,--call thee sweet.Sweeter by far than Hybla's honied rosesWhen steep'd in dew rich to intoxication.Ah! I will taste that dew, for me 'tis meet,And when the moon her pallid face discloses,I'll gather some by spells, and incantation.
