The Lake Isle of Innisfree

The Lake Isle of Innisfree

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 forthe 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.

I will arise and go now, for always, night and

day,

I hear lake-water lapping with low sounds by the shore

While I stand on the roadway or on the pave-ments gray,

I hear it in the deep heart's core.

W, B. Yeats.
