An Old Prophecy.

There have been worse prophecies than this of the Poet Keats, written to his brother George, in Kentucky, In 1818: “Russia may spread her conquests even to China. I think It is a very likely thing that China itself may fall. Turkey certainly will. Meanwhile European North Russia will hold its horns against the rest of Europe, Intriguing constantly with France.”
