What is the meaning of this quote?
"For once, upon a raw and gusty day,
The troubled Tiber chafing with her shores,
Caesar said to me 'Darest thou, Cassius, now
Leap in with me into this angry flood,
And swim to yonder point?' Upon the word,
Accoutred as I was, I plunged in
And bade him follow; so indeed he did.
The torrent roar'd, and we did buffet it
With lusty sinews, throwing it aside
And stemming it with hearts of controversy;
But ere we could arrive the point proposed,
Caesar cried 'Help me, Cassius, or I sink!'
I, as Aeneas, our great ancestor,
Did from the flames of Troy upon his shoulder
The old Anchises bear, so from the waves of Tiber
Did I the tired Caesar."

Read this adapted excerpt from a famous poem by john keats. this poem is about a beautiful vase with intricate shapes and patterns. you, silent form, do tease us out of thought as does etemity: cold pastorall when old age shall this generation waste, you shall remain in the middle of other woe than ours, a friend to man, to whom you say "beauty is truth, truth beauty that is all you know on earth, and all you need to know what is the poet saying when he writes that "old age shall this generation waste"? the poet is expressing his dread of growing older the poet is mourning the changes he sees in his "generation." the poet is saying that beauty is illusionary and short-lived. the poet is saying that people don't live long; life is brief
