1820

On February 3, 1820, Keats returned ill and fevered from a day in London. Charles Brown later wrote, “He mildly and instantly yielded to my request that he should go to bed…On entering the cold sheets, he slightly coughed, and I heard him say, ‘That is blood from my mouth…I know the colour of that blood; - it is arterial blood…that drop of blood is my death-warrant; - I must die.”
