 Ode to a Nightingale by  keats



Summery


The speaker opens with his very own statement sorrow. He feels numb, like he had taken a medication one minute prior. He is tending to a songbird he hears singing some place in the woods and says that his "sleepy deadness" isn't from jealousy of the songbird's joy, but instead from sharing it too totally; he is "excessively glad" that the songbird sings the music of summer from in the midst of some inconspicuous plot of green trees and shadows.
In the subsequent refrain, the speaker aches for the insensibility of liquor, communicating his desire for wine, "a draft of vintage," that would possess a flavor like the nation and like laborer moves, and let him "leave the world concealed" and vanish into the faint timberland with the songbird. In the third refrain, he discloses his longing to disappear, saying he might want to fail to remember the difficulties the songbird has never known: "the exhaustion, the fever, and the fret" of human existence, with its cognizance that everything is mortal and nothing keeps going. Youth "develops pale, and ghost slender, and passes on," and "magnificence can't keep her radiant eyes."

In the fourth refrain, the speaker advises the songbird to take off, and he will follow, not through liquor ("Not charioted by Bacchus and his pards"), yet through verse, which will give him "viewless wings." He says he is as of now with the songbird and depicts the backwoods meadow, where even the twilight is concealed by the trees, aside from the light that gets through when the breezes blow the branches. In the fifth verse, the speaker says that he can't see the blossoms in the knoll, however can figure them "in treated haziness": white hawthorne, eglantine, violets, and the musk-rose, "the murmurous torment of flies on summer eves." In the 6th refrain, the speaker tunes in obscurity to the songbird, saying that he has frequently been "half enamored" with biting the dust and called Death delicate names in many rhymes. Encircled by the songbird's melody, the speaker imagines that the possibility of death appears to be more extravagant than any time in recent memory, and he aches to "stop upon the 12 PM with no aggravation" while the songbird pours its spirit euphorically forward. If he somehow managed to kick the bucket, the songbird would keep on singing, he says, however he would "have ears to no end" and be presently not ready to hear.
In the seventh verse, the speaker lets the songbird know that it is godlike, that it was not "brought into the world for death." He says that the voice he hears singing has consistently been heard, by antiquated heads and jokesters, by pining to go home Ruth; he even says the tune has frequently enchanted open wizardry windows watching out finished "the froth/Of risky oceans, in faery lands miserable." In the eighth refrain, the word melancholy costs like a ringer to reestablish the speaker from his distraction with the songbird and back into himself. As the songbird flies farther away from him, he mourns that his creative mind has bombed him and says that he can don't really review whether the songbird's music was "a dream, or a waking dream." Now that the music is gone, the speaker can't remember whether he, when all is said and done, is alert or sleeping.
Structure
Like the greater part of different tributes, "Tribute to a Nightingale" is written in ten-line refrains. Be that as it may, not at all like the majority of different sonnets, it is metrically factor—however not really as "Tribute to Psyche." The initial seven and last two lines of every verse are written in poetic pattern; the eighth line of every refrain is written in trimeter, with just three emphasized syllables rather than five. "Songbird" likewise varies from different tributes in that its rhyme plot is something very similar in each verse (each and every other tribute changes the request for rhyme in the last three or four lines with the exception of "To Psyche," which has the loosest design of the relative multitude of tributes). Every verse in "Songbird" is rhymed ABABCDECDE, Keats' most essential plan all through the tributes.
Topics
With "Tribute to a Nightingale," Keats' speaker starts his fullest and most unfathomable investigation of the subjects of inventive articulation and the mortality of human existence. In this tribute, the brevity of life and the awfulness of advanced age ("where paralysis shakes a couple, pitiful, last silver hairs,/Where youth develops pale, and phantom meager, and bites the dust") is set against the timeless recharging of the songbird's liquid music ("Thou wast not brought into the world for death, everlasting bird!"). The speaker repeats the "lazy deadness" he encountered in "Tribute on Indolence," however where in "Sluggishness" that deadness was an indication of detachment for a fact, in "Songbird" it is an indication of too full an association: "being too cheerful in thine bliss," as the speaker tells the songbird. Hearing the melody of the songbird, the speaker yearns to escape the human world and join the bird. His initially thought is to arrive at the bird's state through liquor—in the subsequent refrain, he aches for a "draft of vintage" to move him out of himself. In any case, after his contemplation in the third verse on the fleetingness of life, he dismisses being "charioted by Bacchus and his pards" (Bacchus was the Roman lord of wine and should have been conveyed by a chariot pulled by panthers) and picks rather to embrace, interestingly since he wouldn't follow the adds up "Inactivity," "the viewless wings of Poesy."
