Literature :Novel & Poem

THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREEBy William Butler Yeats
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a-glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise and go now,
for always night and day I hear the water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray, I hear it in the deep heart's core.
1892
