The Attack On ‘the Playboy Of The Western World,’ 1907 Poem by William Butler Yeats
The Attack On ‘the Playboy Of The Western World,’ 1907
Rating: ★3.1
Once, when midnight smote the air,
Eunuchs ran through Hell and met
From thoroughfare to thoroughfare,
While that great Juan galloped by;
And like these to rail and sweat
Staring upon his sinewy thigh.
