Four Odes

By John Keats

Narrated by Denis Daly

  1. Ode to a Nightingale
  2. Ode on a Grecian Urn
  3. Ode to Psyche
  4. Ode on Melancholy

Many of the short poems for which Keats has become famous were written in a burst of inspiration early in 1819, including these four odes.

The generally melancholy and sometimes elegiac quality of these poems is reflective of Keats' inevitable preoccupation with his declining health. Another significant factor was his infatuation with Fanny Brawne, who returned his affection in an unfortunately non-exclusive manner.
