"If winter comes, can spring be far behind?" --- Ode to the West Wind, by Percy Bysshe Shelley
Shelly is so popular that even the great Chinese poet Xu Zhimo praised his poetry as delicate and pure.
Other famous poets and poems from Shelley's era include:
George Gordon Byron, Don Juan
Don Juan is a satiric poem by Lord Byron, based on the legend of Don Juan, which Byron reverses, portraying Juan not as a womanizer but as someone easily seduced by women.
John Keats, Ode to a Nightingale
"My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains"
