Synopsis

"O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms, alone and palely loitering?"

A knight, pale and haunted, tells how he met a faery's child in the meadows-how she looked at him as she did love, lulled him asleep, and left him on the cold hillside among pale kings and princes, death-pale, her thralls. Keats's La Belle Dame sans Merci is the most perfect ballad of enchantment and loss in English, and it leads a gathering of his greatest work.

This Lightbound Library edition sets Keats's haunting ballad among his odes and lyrics-Ode to a Nightingale, Ode on a Grecian Urn, To Autumn, and more-behind an original painting by Jessica von Braun, published by Solocosmo Press.
