La Belle Dame Sans Merci (Original Version ) Comments

A brilliant ballad, a dialogue between an observer and the knight, who is deceived by 'la belle dame', after it seemed they had fallen in love. I could recite this poem by heart to a high school class. I closed the books and took up the memorizing challenge.

This is one of my favorite poems. Reading it again after my first and only relationship, I can relate very well to the speaker. However, when I read it for the first time in my English literature class in high school, it was brought up that the lady in the poem could be a symbol of health, as the poet was suffering from an illness. Still, I like thit and it it reminds me of fond- and not so fond- mempories.

Oh what a poet John Keats is. Britians finest.

My favorite poem of favorite poet!

I have read this poem in 1990. Being fascinated by this poem I have made a PPT for my future kids with a very beautiful picturization so that I can feel this poem till eternity and also make them know about the beauty of the writings!
