What poems show the influence of the classics? of Elizabethan literature? Can you explain why his work has been called literary poetry? Keats and Shelley are generally classed together. What similarities do you find in their poems? Give some reasons why Keats introduces the old Bedesman in "The Eve of Saint Agnes." Name some of the literary friends mentioned in Keats's poetry.
"What may your Highness need of Saint Lucy's poor bedesman?" said the hermit, rubbing his hands together. "My Highness needs the whereabouts of a flitted lady," said the knight in a high clear voice. Isoult, whom the clatter had awakened, lay like a hare in her form. At this time she feared Maulfry more than Galors. "Great sir, we have no flitted ladies here. We are very plain folk."
The gauger and schoolmaster united their rhetoric, to prove to the constable and his assistant that he had no right to arrest the king's bedesman as a vagrant; and the mute eloquence of the miller and smith, which was vested in their clenched fists, was prepared to give Highland bail for their arbiter; his blue gown, they said, was his warrant for travelling the country.
He was stronger, too, in body, more capable of the day-after-day walks that were required of him. He had saved some money from his allowance as bedesman and from his pension, and might occasionally have taken an outside place on a coach, had it not been that he shrank from the first look of every stranger upon his disfigured face.
"Then God's will be done," said the other solemnly; "but they told me that there was good news from London, and I came to wish your reverence joy; but God's will be done;" and so the warden again walked on, and the bedesman, looking wistfully after him and receiving no encouragement to follow, returned sadly to his own abode.
I'se no refuse it, though it's beyond my rules; for if they steek me up here, my friends are like eneugh to forget me out o'sight out o'mind, is a true proverb; and it wadna be creditable for me, that am the king's bedesman, and entitled to beg by word of mouth, to be fishing for bawbees out at the jail window wi' the fit o' a stocking, and a string."
Such a relinquishment had never occurred before in all the warden's experience; and he was very much inclined to be offended. 'I must say that for a man not to be satisfied as a bedesman of St Sepulchre's argues a very wrong state of mind, and a very ungrateful heart.
"Go forth to the remedy as I did, in the full confidence that God can, and will, send His blessing upon it." The quiet of Sunday was over, and Helstonleigh awoke on the Monday morning to the bustle of every-day life. Mr. Jenkins awoke, with others, and got up not Jenkins the old bedesman, but his son Joseph, who had the grey mare for his wife. It was Mr.
He was a common soldier, faithful to his post, and ready to give his life; it was never likely that they would take his advice, even in the height of the storm; unless chance should bring him, like the King's bedesman in The Antiquary, to the edge of the sea, when the old baronet and his daughter were caught by the high tide.
"The Lord bless your honour," began the Blue-Gown, with the genuine mendicant whine, "and long life to you! weel pleased am I to hear that young Captain M'Intyre is like to be on his legs again sune Think on your poor bedesman the day." "Aha, old true-penny!" replied the Antiquary.
