Poem by William Butler Yeats

On Hearing That the Students of Our New University Have Joined the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the Agitation against Immoral Literature

Where, where but here have Pride and Truth,
That long to give themselves for wage,
To shake their wicked sides at youth
Restraining reckless middle-age.

1. The Mask
2. These Are the Clouds
3. The Wild Swans at Coole
4. The Cloak, the Boat and the Shoes
5. Upon a House Shaken by the Land Agitation
