    A THING OF BEAUTY BY John Keats

    P P PRESENTATION

    BY

    Mr. G.DWIVEDI

    INTRODUCTION

    1-Can you tell me name of some Romantic Poets?


    2-Who is known as HIGH PRIEST OF NATURE? Why?
    3-Can you recite a poem written by William Wordsworth?

    Well I am going to recite a poem.

    A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:


    Its lovliness increases; it will never
    Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
    A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
    Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
    Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing
    A flowery band to bind us to the earth,
    Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth
    Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,
    Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darkn'd ways
    Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all,
    Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
    From our dark spirits. Such the sun, the moon,
    Trees old and young, sprouting a shady boon
    For simple sheep; and such are daffodils
    With the green world they live in; and clear rills
    That for themselves a cooling covert make
    'Gainst the hot season; the mid-forest brake,
    Rich with a sprinkling of fair musk-rose blooms:
    And such too is the grandeur of the dooms
    We have imagined for the mighty dead;
    All lovely tales that we have heard or read.
    An endless fountain of immortal drink,
    Pouring unto us from the heaven's brink.
