Detailed explanation-1: -The second generation of Romantic poets includes Lord Byron (1788–1824), Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) and John Keats (1795–1821).
Detailed explanation-2: -Blake, Wordsworth and Coleridge were first-generation Romantics, writing against a backdrop of war.

Detailed explanation-3: -Canonically, Romantic poetry in English has been divided into two periods distinguished by two generations of poets. Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Southey belonging to the first; Byron, Shelley, and Keats to the second generation of Romantic poets.
Detailed explanation-4: -John Keats (31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English poet of the second generation of Romantic poets, with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley. His poems had been in publication for less than four years when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25.
