Sleep-book

XLIV.

Reading edition

O magic sleep! O comfortable bird,

That broodest o'er the troubled sea of the mind

'Till it is hush'd and smooth! O unconfin'd

Restraint! imprisoned liberty! great key

To golden palaces, strange ministrelsy,

Fountains grotesque, new trees, bespangled caves,

Echoing grottos, full of tumbling waves

And moonlight, aye, to all the mazy world

Of silvery enchantment!—who, upfurl'd

Beneath thy drowsy wing a triple hour

But renovates and lives?

John Keats.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
