Ode to nightingale
My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk:
'Tis not through envy of thy happy lot,
But being too happy in thine happiness,—
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees

kitapları gerçek bir başarı kazanmamıştır; insanların midesi, yağ ve duyguların karışmadığı böylesine kuru bir yiyeceğe alışkın değildir ve Stendhal yarattığı karakterler için bir başka okur kitlesi düşünmek zorundadır, bir başka yüzyılı, elit bir tabakayı, "happy few"i, 1890'lardaki ya da 1900'lerdeki bir kuşağı düşünür.

the dizzying weather
While “as blowing out the warmth
of breath into the coldness
the rainy weather,
Tinking bout how this beauty
inebriate head
Thinking but couldn't find any meaning.
Why was that car passing by?
As looked with eyes
three degrees myopic,
as far as feel ,
a police car
passing by on that street,

I must freely own that as long as there is any property, and while money is the standard of all other things, I cannot think that a nation can be governed either justly or happily: not justly, because the best things will fall to the share of the worst men; nor happily, because all things will be divided among a few (and even these are not in all respects happy), the rest being left to be absolutely miserable.

A few months hence, and the room now so deserted, occupied but by her silent, pensive self, might be filled again with all that was happy and gay, all that was glowing and bright in prosperous love, all that was most unlike Anne Elliot!
