Poem by William Butler Yeats

To Be Carved on a Stone at Ballylee

I, the poet William Yeats,
With old mill boards and sea-green slates,
And smithy work from the Gort forge,
Restored this tower for my wife George;
And may these characters remain
When all is ruin once again. 

1. Dream of a Blessed Spirit
2. Beautiful Lofty Things
3. Consolation
4. Love's Loneliness
5. The Circus Animals' Desertion
