On Chapman's Corner
UCH have I travell'd in the realms of gold,
And many goodly states and kingdoms seen;
Round many v.'estern islands have I been
Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold.
Oft of one wide expanse had 1 been told

Yet did I ever breathe its pure serene
heard Chapman speak out loud and bold:
Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken ;
Or like stout Cortex when with eagle eyes
He stared at the Pacific, and all his men
Look'd at each other with a wild surmise.
Silent, upon a peak in Darien.
