Notes
Tasting of Flora and the country green,
Dance, and Provencal song, and sunburnt mirth!
- John Keats
( for windy spring days, with nothing to do but open the windows and draw insects, press flowers, and read olde poetry)

This mix is so beautiful - would you object if I shared it on my blog? All credit given, of course. I'm an academic working in romanticism and was planning to make a blog post about inspirational research music - this playlist of yours deserves a spot on there!

that sounds like a dream ♡
though whenever I hear it I think of this movie scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW_3pd3sszw
the poetry was from a movie called Bright Star; the soundtrack is flawless.
