80 ON FIRST LOOKING INTO CHAPMAN'S HOMER Much have I travell'd in the realms of gold, And many goodly states and kingdoms seen : Round many western islands have I been Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold. Oft of one wide expanse had I been told 5 That deep-brow'd Homer ruled as his demesne : Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold : JOHN KEATS 221 Then felt I like some wataher of the skies When a new planet swims into his ken ; 10 Or like stout Cort...ez when with eagle eyes He stared at the Pacific — and all his men Look'd at each other with a wild surmise — Silent, upon a peak in Darien. ON THE GRASSHOPPER AND CRICKET The poetry of earth is never dead : When all the birds are faint with the hot sun, And hiding in cooling trees, a voice will run From hedge to hedge about the new-mown mead ; That is the Grasshopper's — he takes the lead 5 In summer luxury, — he has never done With his delights ; for when tired out with fun He rests at ease beneath some pleasant wood.
