I take as metaphysical poetry that in which what is ordinarily apprehensible only by thought is brought within the grasp of feeling, or that in which what is ordinarily only felt is transformed into thought without ceasing to be feeling.

    أعتبر شعرًا ميتافيزيائيًا ، حيث يتم عادةً إدراك ما هو مفهوم عادةً فقط عن طريق الفكر ، أو ما يتحول فيه الشعور العادي فقط إلى فكر دون توقف عن الشعور.

    나는 보통 생각으로만 이해할 수 있는 것을 느낌의 손 안에 집어넣는 시, 또는 평소에 느낄 수만 있는 것이 느낌을 멈추지 않고 사유로 변형되는 시를 형이상학적 시로 여긴다.
