Boughton, William Butler Yeats, 1903
Come, faeries, take me out of this dull house!
Let me have all the freedom I have lost—
Work when I will and idle when I will!
Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame!
William Butler Yeats, born on this day in 1865, excerpted from The Land of Heart's Desire
