We have a quote thread in the Miscellaneous portion of the forum, but we don't have an active quote thread dedicated entirely unto our man *Keats* (for shame!). So, I thought we could dedicate this space to quotes from Keats's poems and letters. Being a multi-tasker, I propose when a person posts his or her Keats quote, he/she does not cite the source but instead asks the rest of us to guess where the quote came from. What say you all to that?
I'll begin. Here's a part of a Keats poem that I truly love (being the morbid sort of person I am--I blame it on my English degree. . .
):
"On the high couch he lay!- his friends came round-
Supported him- no pulse, or breath they found,
And, in its marriage robe, the heavy body wound"
What poem is this quote from?
Those are the penultumate lines of the poem--they really give a hint of where Keats could have gone with dramatic writing had he lived longer.
