诗歌全文:
When I have Fears That I May Cease to Be
By John Keats
When I have fearsthat I may cease to be
Beforemy pen has gleaned my teeming brain,
Before high-pilèdbooks, in charactery,
Holdlike rich garners the full ripened grain;
When I behold,upon the night’s starred face,
Hugecloudy symbols of a high romance,
And think that Imay never live to trace
Theirshadows with the magic hand of chance;
And when I feel,fair creature of an hour,
ThatI shall never look upon thee more,
Never have relishin the faery power
Ofunreflecting love—then on the shore
Of the wide worldI stand alone, and think
Till love and fameto nothingness do sink.
