HDHDHDHD. YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
30 Min. making this, 2 hours rendering in Full HD, 1 1/2 hours uploading it. I also upped the bass a little to give his voice a little boom. /like it needed it. So uh Enjoy his face and voice. :)
My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk:
'Tis not through envy of thy happy lot,
But being too happy in thine happiness, --
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees
In some melodious plot
Of beechen green, and shadows numberless,
Singest of summer in full-throated ease.
O, for a draught of vintage! that hath been
Cool'd a long age in the deep-delved earth,
Tasting of Flora and the country green,
Dance, and Provençal song, and sunburnt mirth!
O for a beaker full of the warm South,
Full of the true, the blushful Hippocrene,
With beaded bubbles winking at the brim,
And purple-stained mouth;
That I might drink, and leave the world unseen,
And with thee fade away into the forest dim:
Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget
What thou among the leaves hast never known,
The weariness, the fever, and the fret
Here, where men sit and hear each other groan;
Where palsy shakes a few, sad, last gray hairs,
Where youth grows pale, and spectre-thin, and dies;
Where but to think is to be full of sorrow
And leaden-eyed despairs,
Where Beauty cannot keep her lustrous eyes,
Or new Love pine at them beyond to-morrow.
Away! away! for I will fly to thee,
Not charioted by Bacchus and his pards,
But on the viewless wings of Poesy,
Though the dull brain perplexes and retards:
Already with thee! tender is the night,
And haply the Queen-Moon is on her throne,
Cluster'd around by all her starry Fays;
But here there is no light,
Save what from heaven is with the breezes blown
Through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways.
I cannot see what flowers are at my feet,
Nor what soft incense hangs upon the boughs,
But, in embalmed darkness, guess each sweet
Wherewith the seasonable month endows
The grass, the thicket, and the fruit-tree wild;
White hawthorn, and the pastoral eglantine;
Fast fading violets cover'd up in leaves;
And mid-May's eldest child,
The coming musk-rose, full of dewy wine,
The murmurous haunt of flies on summer eves.
Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
I have been half in love with easeful Death,
Call'd him soft names in many a mused rhyme,
To take into the air my quiet breath;
Now more than ever seems it rich to die,
To cease upon the midnight with no pain,
While thou art pouring forth thy soul abroad
In such an ecstasy!
Still wouldst thou sing, and I have ears in vain --
To thy high requiem become a sod.
Thou wast not born for death, immortal Bird!
No hungry generations tread thee down;
The voice I hear this passing night was heard
In ancient days by emperor and clown:
Perhaps the self-same song that found a path
Through the sad heart of Ruth, when, sick for home,
She stood in tears amid the alien corn;
The same that oft-times hath
Charm'd magic casements, opening on the foam
Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn.
Forlorn! the very word is like a bell
To toll me back from thee to my sole self!
Adieu! the fancy cannot cheat so well
As she is fam'd to do, deceiving elf.
Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades
Past the near meadows, over the still stream,
Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep
In the next valley-glades:
Was it a vision, or a waking dream?
Fled is that music: -- Do I wake or sleep?

I have a condition called synesthesia, which shows me colors that accompany noises. Benedict cumberbatch's voice is a gorgeous medley of blues and purples. Honestly, minus the infatuation of a fan, I could sit and listen to his voice for hours.

TheJamesy52 I'm not a native English speaker myself though I grew up with English and nearly "unlearned" my own mother language, but I did not understand all the words - let alone the content - of the told story. Non-native English speakers may be able to write a neat text but they won't always understand spoken language, especially if they learnt American English and try to understand British English. That was - and still is - the greatest difficulty for me in school 'cause I grew up with American English whilst in school they teach us British English. Therefore it IS possible for people to not understand everything spoken in this video.

I'm glad there are people commenting who appreciate good literary works and aren't just fawning over Cumberbatch. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan, but the poem takes the stage. His voice its merely the vehicle used to deliver it! (I love his acting, don;t mistake me)

@maggie14411331 10 лет назад

I'm not a fan of poetry, but I notice how much better an actor reads poems than a poet does. Poets use the same odd pitch and vocal manner throughout, an actor (especially a good one like Ben) will use his voice to make you feel what's being said, not just hear it.
@Mizraab2912

Agreed...actors are needed to renew the public's interest in great poetry. You should also listen to "Fish" by D.H. Lawrence narrated by Andrew Scott (the Moriarty to Ben's Sherlock). He brings life to an otherwise confusing and vague poem.

I came here because of Benedict, but honestly if my literature teacher would've read poetry with this much talent and intonation basically the right way then maybe I would've loved poetry by now. This man knows how to read poetry and has got the accent and voice tone to back it up. I'm glad he is in tune with this art form so well. I'm glad he does theater and these readings and voice overs. It expands an actor so much more than being a handsome face. Really the face is just a bonus in his case. Has worked on his craft for years and has made it better. Quite impressed with this man. He takes his career seriously and loves what he does.

poets read their works, or works of others, the same way a mechanic fixes a car, or a doctor performs a life saving surgery; every syllable and beat is equally precious. actors read with the want and forgery of the artifice of alarm and reassurance only the masks can make of life. that said everyone, especially poets, love when an actor reads a work aloud. and Benedict Cumberbatch is a fantastic actor, with a great voice, and wonderful insight of inflection and tone and the powers thereof. love his work. and very glad he did this one. Keats is one of those empty arrays of life, that bold comes to life, with the twist of conscious prism, into a splendor shudder of defused color burnished of bruised needs. there is insight, and brooding reflection, and the already growing distance of the genius touch. here, he is being almost whimsical, with the horror of loss of all, and the strangulation of those that survivor for a clock tick more alone, and eroded of persona, crippled by loss, of all those, or the one, who did not survive. pared of one to alone. deep dark stuff done with a cuff link glint flip of the wrist like a magician producing a cloud of doves out of thin air. and yet it is all in supposition, in abstract, before the prior event is a past reflection of self and same. i am glad when someone like Cumberbatch, who has the talent and the charm, does works like this; it brings a horde of deer eyed people into master works of poetry, and being there they often stay to become ever greater poets themselves, to fill the void of needs with worlds wonderful and true. thanks to him to sound the call, and those that follow. and thanks to all who worked so hard on this; for it is and was and will be, not to unlock a new generation of poets and poetry lovers, alone that it was made, but is the heart given voice in our time of needs.

“My heart aches…”. those haunting words, that beauty of perfect poetry. Thank you Benedict for reciting such the genius that is Keats ❤

Has anyone here heard of negative capability? It's at the heart of understanding Keats poetry. Simply it is the capacity to transcend and revise our conditions, the context of our existence, through poetic language and the freeing of imagination. While I loved the nuances of Benedict's reading, it was marred by Mahler's 5th Symphony dirge in the background, a piece of music ill suited to the poetry simply by its self pitying pessimism and monotony of tone...the music is in the words after all. I've had my say, love you all xclamda

I grew up reading Keats, and Benedict makes this poem even greater if possible!

I love poetry from John Keats. You can feel him through his work, and it's not only pleasing but sensual as well.

I seriously just hit play, laid back and closed my eyes, and I literally traveled to another place for 5 minutes.. it was glorious. Paints a perfect picture for you... this is going on my favorites and will be watched many more times. Thank you Ben for an excellent reading and thank you for uploading this!

Ive listened to this over 12 times and when I finally get a glimpse of what Keats mean from Benedict's emphasis, I well up with tears. So beautiful.
