bookshavepores:John Keats’ handwritten poem “Sweet, sweet is the greeting of eyes” written at Keswick on 28 June 1818 in a letter to George and Georgiana Keats. The poem reads:Sweet, sweet is the greeting of eyesAnd sweet is the voice in its greeting.When adieux have grown old and goodbyesFade away when old time is retreating.Warm the nerve of a welcoming handand earnest a kiss on the brow,When we meet over the sea and o’er landWhere furrows are new to the plough.John Keats Collection, 1814-1891; MS Keats 1, Letters by John Keats.
