Sherendipity Saturday: Endymion

The Recitation - Thomas Dewing

Note: A brief fragment from "Endymion," a long poem by John Keats.  Fanny Brawne read this small part out loud in the film "Bright Star."


A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
- John Keats
