“
Thou, silent form, dost tease us out of thought
As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!
When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say’st,
“‘Beauty is truth, truth beauty,’ — that is all
Ye know on Earth, and all ye need to know.”
John Keats, “Ode On A Grecian Urn”, 1820
