The Fall of Hyperion: A Dream is a poem written by the English Romantic John Keats. Keats composed "The Fall of Hyperion" by reworking, expanding, and personally narrating lines from his earlier fragmented epic poem "Hyperion". This poem opens with the poet stumbling on a post-Edenic feast scene, and partaking of a "cool vessel of transparent juice" that becomes his muse.
