How many poems did John Keats write?

A Dream;As Hermes once took to his feathers light,
When lulled Argus, baffled, swooned and slept,
So on a Delphic reed, my idle spright
So played, so charmed, so conquered, so bereft
The dragon-world of all its hundred eyes;
And seeing it asleep, so fled away,
Not to pure Ida with its snow-cold skies,
Nor unto Tempe, where Jove grieved a day;
But to that second circle of sad Hell,
Where in the gust, the whirlwind, and the flaw
Of rain and hail-stones, lovers need not tell
Their sorrows. Pale were the sweet lips I saw,
Pale were the lips I kissed, and fair the form
I floated with, about that melancholy storm.

Happy Is England; Happy is England! I could be content
To see no other verdure than its own;
To feel no other breezes than are blown
Through its tall woods with high romances blent:
Yet do I sometimes feel a languishment
For skies Italian, and an inward groan
To sit upon an Alp as on a throne,
And half forget what world or worldling meant.
Happy is England, sweet her artless daughters;
Enough their simple loveliness for me,
Enough their whitest arms in silence clinging:
Yet do I often warmly burn to see
Beauties of deeper glance, and hear their singing,
And float with them about the summer waters.

Bright Star; Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art--
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors--
No--yet still stedfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever--or else swoon to death.

Why is 'grandeur' associated with the 'mighty deads' in the poem A Thing of Beauty by John Keats?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In the poem "A Thing of Beauty" by John Keats, 'grandeur' is associated with the 'mighty dead' because it suggests that the greatness and beauty of nature outlives human mortality. The 'mighty dead' refers to great figures from the past who have achieved a kind of immortality through their legacy, much like the enduring beauty of nature described in the poem.Keats is highlighting the eternal quality of beauty and its ability to transcend time and death.

What is the explanation and paraphrase of keats' poem endymion book 1 stanza 1?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In this part of the poem, the poet John Keats says that a thing of beauty continues to inspires us throught our life, it never ceases to exist in our heart. With the passage of time, the effect of the thing becomes more profound. The beautiful thing is like a ray of hope amidst the world's miseries. It refreshes our souls, rejuvenates us, and soothes our frayed nerves. It is like a retreat from the ugliness in the world. Everyday, such beautiful things (in nature) bind us to the earth.

In spite of all the gloom, selfishness, sadness, dejection, and all things we suffer in this world, the beautiful thing (it might be a scene, an object, or anything which a person finds beautiful) is like a ray of hope amidst it all. Like the sun, the moon shining through this dark curtain, trees, sheep, or flowers for that matter... also the green streams, waterfalls, fountains, musk rose blooms, etc. All tales of heroism which inspire us, give us the courage to fight against all odds... they are an endless source of inspiration.

The appearance of a grasshopper?

Asked by Wiki User

It is a grasshopper.

There is one type that jump and then can fly for more than 100 m without resting.

As a grasshopper, they are grey, light brown or black and when they fly they show black wings w/ a yellow rim around the outer edge.

They are deceptively graceful, and blend in well w/ the dry scrub they call home.

What is the difference between a leaf hopper and a grass hopper?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

"Locusts are part of a large group of insects commonly called grasshoppers which have big hind legs for jumping. Locusts belong to the family called Acrididae [,short-horned grasshoppers]. Locusts differ from grasshoppers in that they have the ability to change their behaviour and habits and can migrate over large distances. As Desert Locusts increase in number and become more crowded, they change their behavior from that of acting as an individual (solitarious) insect to that as acting as part of a group (gregarious). The appearance of the locust also changes: solitary adults are brown whereas gregarious adults are pink (immature) and yellow (mature). Up until 1921, it was thought that the Desert Locust was actually two different species of locusts." http://www.fao.org/ag/locusts/en/info/info/faq/
