The following text is from John Keats's poem "When I have fears that I may cease to be."

When I have fears that I may cease to be

Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain,

Before high-piled books, in charactery,

Hold like rich garners the full ripened grain;

When I behold, upon the night's starred face,

Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,

And think that I may never live to trace

Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance;

And when I feel, fair creature of an hour,

That I shall never look upon thee more,

Never have relish in the faery power

Of unreflecting love—then on the shore

Of the wide world I stand alone, and think

Till love and fame to nothingness do sink.

Which choice best states the main purpose of the text?

To celebrate the achievements and potential of the poetic craft.

To express the anxiety over unfulfilled potential and the inevitability of death.

To explore the relationship between nature, love, and artistic inspiration.

To detail a personal journey towards acceptance of life's transience.
