ODE TO
A NIGHTINGALE
By
John Keats
It is easy to see why after reading his biography . . . Keats
certainly had many sad events in his short life.
Note of Interest: Nightingale is from the old
English word "Nihtegale" which means: singer of the night.
Nightingales are found from Northeastern Europe to Siberia, spending
the winter months in Africa.
