I will arise and go now, and go to Innisiree.

And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:

Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive lor 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 midnighis all a glimmer: and noon a purple glow.

And evening full of the linneis 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 pavements grey.

I hear it in the deep hearts core.
