Illustration to Tennyson's "The Lotos-Eaters" by W. E. F. Britten. The poem's a bit long to quote: see the full text at the English Wikisource. The relevant section (see below for source for this) is: Let us swear an oath, and keep it with an equal mind, In the hollow Lotos-land to live and lie reclined On the hills like Gods together, careless of mankind.
