  SparkNotes: Keats's Odes: Ode on Indolence
Chronologically, the "Ode on Indolence" was probably the second ode.
So the principal theme of "Ode on Indolence" holds that the pleasant numbness of the speaker's indolence is a preferable state to the more excitable states of love, ambition, and poetry.
One of the great themes of Keats's odes is that of the anguish of mortality--the pain and frustration caused by the changes and endings inevitable in human life, which are contrasted throughout the poems with the permanence of art.

 SparkNotes: Keats's Odes: Ode to a Nightingale
With "Ode to a Nightingale," Keats's speaker begins his fullest and deepest exploration of the themes of creative expression and the mortality of human life.
In this ode, the transience of life and the tragedy of old age ("where palsy shakes a few, sad, last gray hairs, / Where youth grows pale, and spectre-thin, and dies") is set against the eternal renewal of the nightingale's fluid music ("Thou wast not born for death, immortal bird!").
The speaker reprises the "drowsy numbness" he experienced in "Ode on Indolence," but where in "Indolence" that numbness was a sign of disconnection from experience, in "Nightingale" it is a sign of too full a connection: "being too happy in thine happiness," as the speaker tells the nightingale.

I also discuss the difference between "idle fever" and "diligent indolence" because they are very different ideas to Keats, although both in theory mean laziness.
After I discuss these concepts that are important to Keats, I begin my discussion on how they are used throughout the "Ode on Indolence," and I begin with the first stanza by discussing the important lines and symbolism.
Although I use these secondary sources thoughout this paper, I use quotes from Keats' letters the most often because the "Ode on Indolence" is a direct reference to Keats' letters and ideas about being a great poet.

Ode on Indolence Summary In the first stanza, Keats's speaker describes a vision he had one morning of three strange figures wearing white robes and "placid sandals." The figures passed by in profile, and the speaker describes their passing by comparing them to figures carved into the side of a marble urn, or vase.
When the last figure passed by, the first figure reappeared, just as would happen if one turned a vase carved with figures before one's eyes.

The thought and the imagery of this Ode, which was not published in Keats's lifetime, are obviously suggested by those of his letter of 19 March 1819 to George Keats.
The Ode, though written just after the Ode to Psyche, shows Keats still experimenting with the form he was to develop in the later Odes.
It must be added that Keats himself wrote (9 june) "You will judge of my 1819 temper, when I tell you that the thing I have most enjoyed this year has been writing an ode to Indolence".
