Keats survives as the archetypical Romantic genius who suffered a tragically early death.
He was, wrote Matthew Arnold, 'a great spirit'. But his poetry has proved equally durable, withstanding all revaluation of the Romantics, and few would now dispute his right to be regarded as one of the foremost English poets.
This volume contains all the poems and plays known to have been written by Keats, as well as two poems and a fragment of a play which are of doubtful attribution. There are extensive notes, including long extracts from the letters, and a dictionary of classical names based largely on the work of Lempriére, with which Keats himself was familiar. In addition, Keats's annotations to Paradise Lost and his review of Edmund Kean's acting, both difficult for the modern reader to obtain, are printed as Appendices.

O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell,
Let it not be among the jumbled heap
Of murky buildings: climb with me the steep,—
Nature’s observatory—whence the dell,
In flowery slopes, its river’s crystal swell,
May seem a span; let me thy vigils keep
‘Mongst boughs pavilioned, where the deer’s swift leap
Startles the wild bee from the foxglove bell.
But though I’ll gladly trace these scenes with thee,
Yet the sweet converse of an innocent mind,
Whose words are images of thoughts refined,
Is my soul’s pleasure; and it sure must be
Almost the highest bliss of human-kind,
When to thy haunts two kindred spirits flee.
Sonnet VII. To Solitude
