LINES, by JOHN KEATS Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Unfelt, unheard, unseen Last Line: For all the blushing of the hasty morn. | ||||||||
I. UNFELT, unheard, unseen, I've left my little queen, Her languid arms in silver slumber lying: Ah! through their nestling touch, Who--who could tell how much There is for madness--cruel, or complying? II. Those faery lids how sleek! Those lips how moist!--they speak, In ripest quiet, shadows of sweet sounds: Into my fancy's ear Melting a burden dear, How "Love doth know no fullness nor no bounds." III. True!--tender monitors! I bend unto your laws: This sweetest day for dalliance was born! So, without more ado, I'll feel my heaven anew, For all the blushing of the hasty morn. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EXTRACTS FROM AN OPERA: 2.
