164. Dumb to Homer, dumb to Keats: Homer celebrates the moon in the “Hymn to Diana” (see Shelley’s translation), and makes Artemis upbraid her brother Phoebus when he claims that it is not meet for gods to concern themselves with mortals (Iliad, xxi. 470). Keats, in “Endymion,” sings of her love for a mortal.
