- John Keats

- Exported from Wikisource on 03/21/20
- O Peace! and dost thou with thy presence bless
- The dwellings of this war-surrounded Isle;
- Soothing with placid brow our late distress,
- Making the triple kingdom brightly smile?
- Joyful I hail thy presence; and I hail
- The sweet companions that await on thee;
- Complete my joy - let not my first wish fail,
- Let the sweet mountain nymph thy favourite be,
- With England's happiness proclaim Europa's liberty.
- O Europe! Let not sceptred tyrants see
- That thou must shelter in thy former state;
- Keep thy chains burst, and boldy say thou art free;
- Give thy kings law - leave not uncurbed the great;
- So with the horrors past thou'lt win thy happier fate!
