Mapping Keats’s Progress
A Critical Chronology

References to this poem

Unfelt, unheard, unseen

  • Unfelt, unheard, unseen,
  • I’ve left my little queen,
  • Her languid arms in silver slumber dying:
  • Ah! through their nestling touch,
  • Who, who could tell how much
  • There is for madness — cruel, or complying?
  • Those faery lids how sleek,
  • Those lips how moist — they speak,
  • In ripest quiet, shadows of sweet sounds;
  • Into my fancy’s ear
  • Melting a burden dear,
  • How “love doth know no fullness nor no bounds.”
  • True tender monitors,
  • I bend unto your laws:
  • This sweetest day for dalliance was born;
  • So, without more ado,
  • I’ll feel my heaven anew,
  • For all the blushing of the hasty morn.
