Today is Saturday and it is an unwritten law that on Saturdays
one is permitted to post sonnets. Here are the last 6 lines
of one by Keats:
...
Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken;
Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes
He stared at the Pacific—and all his men
Looked at each other with a wild surmise—
Silent, upon a peak in Darien.
frpm John Keats’ sonnet “On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer” (1816)
