Read this adapted excerpt from a famous poem by John Keats. The poem is about a beautiful vase made in ancient Greece

When old age shall this generation waste,

You shall remain, in the middle of other woe

"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,"-that is all

You know on earth, and all you need to know.

What is this an example of

a sonnet

    You are correct. The best answer based on the choices you have given above would be 'ode'. The piece by John Keats is actually entitled 'Ode to a Grecian Urn', so it's not that hard to determine. Moreover, an ode is a poem that expresses appreciation, devotion, love, or praise to something - which is clearly seen in the excerpt given.
