ode to a grecian urn

…

…cow and the townspeople to a sacrifice. They are going to sacrifice the cow all dressed in flowers. All the people are leaving the town and will never be able to return again. It will be deserted forever. In the fifth and final stanza Keats is once again talking about the urn. Keats explains that the urn will last forever and when this generation is gone, the urn will still be here in the present.
