Lycius, the title character, and Lamia, the serpent, carry on a love affair and are engaged to be married; their relationship, however, is destroyed when a cunning old sage reveals Lamia's true identity, whereupon she returns to her serpent state and Lycius dies of grief. The poem explores Keatsian themes such as the tension between reason and sensation, and the illusory but potentially redemptive quality of poetry and love.</blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://www.bartleby.com/126/36.html" href="http://www.bartleby.com/126/36.html" style="font-size: 11px;">www.bartleby.com</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.bartleby.com/126/36.html"><TR><TD>golden, green, and blue;</TD><TD><A name="48"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>Striped like a zebra, freckled like a pard,</TD><TD><A name="49"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>Eyed like a peacock, and all crimson barr’d;</TD><TD valign="top" align="right"><FONT size="-2"><A name="50"><I>        50</I></A></FONT></TD></TR><TR><TD>And full of silver moons, that, as she breathed,</TD><TD><A name="51"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>Dissolv’d, or brighter shone, or interwreathed</TD><TD><A name="52"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>Their lustres with the gloomier tapestries—</TD><TD><A name="53"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>So rainbow-sided, touch’d with miseries,</TD><TD><A name="54"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD>She seem’d, at once, some penanced lady elf,</TD></TR></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A30042A6-BA5C-48F2-811B-FFF0016542F3/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
