Homer

« All quotes from this author
 

Oft in one wide expanse had I been told
That deep-browed Homer ruled as his demesne;
Yet never did I breathe its pure serene
Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold:
Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken.
--
John Keats, in On First Looking into Chapman's Homer, 1817.
