Romantic, ain't it.
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe Than ours, a friend
to man, to whom thou sayst, Beauty is truth, truth
beauty,that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to
know.
Once out of nature I shall never take
My bodily form from any natural thing,
But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
Of hammered gold and gold enamelling
To keep a drowsy emperor awake;
Or set upon the golden bough to sing
To lords and ladies of Byzantium
Of what is past, or passing, or to come.
