 　　Ode on a Grecian Urn1

　　THOU still unravish'd bride of quietness,
　　Thou foster-child of Silence and slow Time,
　　Sylvan2 historian, who canst thus express
　　A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme:
　　What leaf-fringed legend haunts about thy shape
　　Of deities3 or mortals, or of both,
　　In Tempe or the dales of Arcady?
　　What men or gods are these? What maidens4 loth?
　　What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape?
　　What pipes and timbrels? What wild ecstasy5?
　　Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard
　　Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;
　　Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd,
　　Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone:
　　Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave
　　Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;
　　Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss,
　　Though winning near the goal—yet, do not grieve;
　　She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss6,
　　For ever wilt7 thou love, and she be fair!
　　Ah, happy, happy boughs8! that cannot shed
　　Your leaves, nor ever bid the Spring adieu;
　　And, happy melodist, unwearièd,
　　For ever piping songs for ever new;
　　More happy love! more happy, happy love!
　　For ever warm and still to be enjoy'd,
　　For ever panting, and for ever young;
　　All breathing human passion far above,
　　That leaves a heart high-sorrowful and cloy'd,
　　A burning forehead, and a parching9 tongue.
　　Who are these coming to the sacrifice?
　　To what green altar, O mysterious priest,
　　Lead'st thou that heifer lowing at the skies,
　　And all her silken flanks with garlands drest?
　　What little town by river or sea-shore,
　　Or mountain-built with peaceful citadel10,
　　Is emptied of its folk, this pious11 morn?
　　And, little town, thy streets for evermore
　　Will silent be; and not a soul, to tell
　　Why thou art desolate12, can e'er return.
　　O Attic13 shape! fair attitude! with brede
　　Of marble men and maidens overwrought,
　　With forest branches and the trodden weed;
　　Thou, silent form! dost tease us out of thought
　　As doth eternity14: Cold Pastoral!
　　When old age shall this generation waste,
　　Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe15
　　Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
　　'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
　　Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
