Analysis of Ode To Keats
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
let me count the ways
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
so near, so far away
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
one chance to cross the line
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
love is so defined
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
as time begins today
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
one word, so much to say
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty,
to reach inside oneself
Beauty is truth,
truth is beauty
—whose passion only felt
