Mapping Keats’s Progress
A Critical Chronology

Apollo to the Graces

  • APOLLO
  • Which of the fairest three
  • To-day will ride with me?
  • My steeds are all pawing on the thresholds of morn:
  • Which of the fairest three
  • To-day will ride with me
  • Across the gold autumn’s whole kingdoms of corn?
  • THE GRACES ALL ANSWER
  • I will, I — I — I —
  • O young Apollo, let me fly along with thee;
  • I will, I — I — I —
  • The many, many wonders see,
  • I — I — I — I —
  • And thy lyre shall never have a slacken’d string;
  • I — I — I — I —
  • Thro’ the whole golden day will sing.
