TO…
(〃WHAT CAN I DO TO DRIVE AWAY〃)
by John Keats
What can I do to drive away
Remembrance from my eyes? for they have seen;
Aye; an hour ago; my brilliant Queen!
Touch has a memory。 O say; love; say;
What can I do to kill it and be free
In my old liberty?
When every fair one that I saw was fair
Enough to catch me in but half a snare;
Not keep me there:
When; howe'er poor or particolour'd things;
My muse had wings;
And ever ready was to take her course
Whither I bent her force;
Unintellectual; yet divine to me;…
Divine; I say!… What sea…bird o'er the sea
Is a philosopher the while he goes
Winging along where the great water throes?
How shall I do
To get anew
Those moulted feathers; and so mount once more
Above; above
The reach of fluttering Love;
And make him cower lowly while I soar?
Shall I gulp wine? No; that is vulgarism;
A heresy and schism;
Foisted into the canon law of love;…
No;… wine is only sweet to happy men;
More dismal cares
Seize on me unawares;…
Where shall I learn to get my peace again?
To banish thoughts of that most hateful land;
Dungeoner of my friends; that wicked strand
Where they were wreck'd and live a wrecked life;
That monstrous region; whose dull rivers pour
Ever from their sordid urns unto the shore;
Unown'd of any weedy…haired gods;
Whose winds; all zephyrless; hold scourging rods;
Iced in the great lakes; to afflict mankind;
Whose rank…grown forests; frosted; black; and blind;
Would fright a Dryad; whose harsh herbag'd meads
Make lean and lank the starv'd ox while he feeds;
There flowers have no scent; birds no sweet song;
And great unerring Nature once seems wrong。
O; for some sunny spell
To dissipate the shadows of this hell!
Say they are gone;… with the new dawning light
Steps forth my lady bright!
O; let me once more rest
My soul upon that dazzling breast!
Let once again these aching arms be plac'd;
The tender gaolers of thy waist!
And let me feel that warm breath here and there
To spread a rapture in my very hair;…
O; the sweetness of the pain!
Give me those lips again!
Enough! Enough! it is enough for me
To dream of thee!
THE END
