“My feet are at Moorgate, and my heart
Under my feet. After the event
He wept. He promised ‘a new start.’
I made no comment. What should I resent?”

Keats was born
At the Swan and Hoop
199 Moorgate

He wrote
"Beauty is truth
Truth beauty..."

Which Eliot found:
A serious blemish on a beautiful poem,
either I fail to understand it,
or it is a statement which is untrue.
Keats seems to me meaningless:
or perhaps the fact that it is grammatically meaningless
conceals another meaning from me

Τί ἐστιν ἀλήθεια
