The Great Odes - what order would you rank them?

Postby Dolores » Thu Mar 31, 2011 6:24 pm

Sorry if this topic has already been posted but I couldn't find it anywhere when I searched.

Ok so out of the 6 Major Odes how would you rank them? 1 being your favourite 6 being your least favourite.
I know it's tough but I think my order goes

1 - Nightingale ( :D LOVE LOVE LOVE )
2 - Melancholy
3 - Grecian Urn
4 - Autumn
5 - Pysche
6 - Indolence

It's quite a battle between 3rd and 4th place!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Pale were the sweet lips I saw, Pale were the lips I kiss'd, and fair the form I floated with about that melancholy storm

Oh I cannot Dolores- love them all equally!
John....you did not live to see-
who we are because of what you left,
what it is we are in what we make of you.
