The Great Poets: John Keats

Naxos AudioBooks continues its new series of Great Poets - represented by a collection of their most popular poems on one CD - with John Keats. Although this man had a short life, he produced a series of outstanding poems - many of which appeared first in letters to his sister. He was largely unappreciated during his lifetime, and died in Rome at the age of 26. Most of his 150 poems were written in just nine extraordinary months in 1819. This selection contains some of his finest works, the principal Odes, La Belle Dame Sans Merci, Old Meg and Much Have I Travelled. INCLUDED IN The Great Poets - John Keats |Great spirits now on earth are sojourning; |Much have I travelled in the realms of gold |On the Sea |Wherein lies happiness? In that which becks |On Sitting Down to read King Lear once Again |Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art |Old Meg she was a Gipsy |Deep in the shady sadness of a vale |A casement high and triple-arch'd there was |Ode to a Nightingale |Ode on Melancholy |Why did I laugh tonight? No voice will tell |La Belle Dame Sans Merci |On a Grecian Urn |To Sleep |Ode To Psyche |A haunting music, sole perhaps and lone |To Autumn |This living hand, now warm and capable |When I have fears that I may cease to be |From Endymion |Fancy |There Was a Naughty Boy |The Eve of St Agnes
