From a tree's summit.

Additional quotes by John Keats

I can scarcely bid you good-bye, even in a letter. I always made an awkward bow. God bless you!

O for a life of Sensations rather than of Thoughts!

Nought but a lovely sighing of the wind
Along the reedy stream; a half-heard strain,
Full of sweet desolation—balmy pain.

Stop and consider! life is but a day; A fragile dew-drop on its perilous way From a tree's summit. - John Keats
