“How manybards gild the lapses of time”
by John Keats

How many bards gild the lapses of time!
A few of them have ever been the food
Of my delighted fancy——I could brood
Over their beauties, earthy, or sublime;

And often, when I sit me down to rhyme,
These will in throngs before my mind intrude:
But no confusion, no disturbance rude
Do they occasion; ‘tis a pleasing chime.

So the unnumbered sounds that evening store:
The songs of birds, the whispering of the leaves,
The voice of waters, the great bell that heaves

With solemn sound, and thousand others more
That distance of recognizance bereaves,
Make pleasing music, and not wild uproar.
