January 20th is the day before the feast day of St. Agnes. Keats wrote a poem,
C. 1819, entitled The Eve of St. Agnes, inspired by the superstition that a girl
would see her future husband in a dream if she did certain things this evening.

Several interpretations are possible of this long narrative poem; I’m partial to the idea that
The Eve of St. Agnes is about dreams overtaking reality, but, then again, I’m a dreamer.
Full of wild and beautiful imagery, I like this poem.
