John Keats's Love Letter to Fanny Brawne

A Fanny Brawne, 13 ottobre 1819

Mia cara ragazza,

In questo momento mi sono messo a copiare dei bei versi.

Non riesco a proseguire con una certa soddisfazione. Ti devo dunque scrivere una riga o due per vedere se questo mi concede di escluderti dalla mia mente anche per un breve momento. Dentro la mia anima non so a pensare a null'altro.

Tempo fa avevo la forza di ammonirti contro la poco promettente mattina della mia vita.

Il mio amore mi ha reso egoistico.
