Severen, Keats Listening to a Nightingale on Hampstead Heath, 1845
The poetical Character is not itself – it has no self – it
is everything and nothing – It has no character – it enjoys light and shade; it
lives in gusto, be it foul or fair, high or low, rich or poor, mean or elevated
– It has as much delight in an Iago as an Imogen. What shocks the virtuous
philosopher delights the camelion Poet.
