In John Keats’ "Ode to a Nightingale‚" different questions are asked‚ but in the same nature as those in Blake’s poems. The three poems are all similar in discussing nature; however there are differences in the negative capability of them. In both "The

    this poem really about? 2. Why did Keats write the poem as he did? Why did he use the words‚ the rhythm‚ the images‚ the metaphors that he uses in the poem? Figure out your answer to these questions‚ and then set out to prove that you are right. For example‚ you might think that To Autumn says something about Keats’s attitude towards death.
