by JohnKeatsTo My Brother GeorgeWritten on the day that Mr. Le…To * * * * * * Had I a man’s fair form, then might my sighs Be echoed swiftly through that ivory shell, Thine ear, and find thy gentle heart; so well Would passion arm me for the enterprize: But ah! I am no knight whose foeman dies; No cuirass glistens on my bosom’s swell; I am no happy shepherd of the dell Whose lips have trembled with a maiden’s eyes; Yet must I dote upon thee,–call thee sweet. Sweeter by far than Hybla’s honied roses When 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.
