W.B.Yeats Quotes

One Winter Evening An Old Knight In Rusted Chain-armour Rode Slowly Along The Woody Southern Slope Of Ben Bulben, Watching The Sun Go Down In Crimson Clouds Over The Sea. His Horse Was Tired, As After A Long Journey, And He Had Upon His Helmet The Crest Of No Neighbouring Lord Or King, But A Small Rose Made Of Rubies That Glimmered Every Moment To A Deeper Crimson. His White Hair Fell In Thin Curls Upon His Shoulders, And Its Disorder Added To The Melancholy Of His Face, Which Was The Face Of One Of Those Who Have Come But Seldom Into The World, And Always For Its Trouble, The Dreamers Who Must Do What They Dream, The Doers Who Must Dream What They Do
