“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 honey bee, 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.” MadePeaceMorningWingsNineAriseEveningLoudHoneyBeesMidnightCricketVeilsClayPurpleDroppingBeansNoonCabinsHivesHoney Bee Author:William Butler Yeats
