I love the tool Keats uses to profoundly affect the Romantic sense in his poetry. He starts grounded in reality, then slowly and gradually goes into this ideal sense, that once it hits a peak, goes back down to reality. But it is not the same point you started in.
A fantastic poet. If only he had been able to write longer, think of the influence he would've had on his contemporaries.
