[00:17.91] THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREE
[00:18.38] By William Butler Yeats
[00:18.99]
[00:25.19] I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
[00:37.61] And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
[00:50.12] Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
[01:02.79] And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
[01:15.80] And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
[01:29.14] Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
[01:41.34] There midnight's all a-glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
[01:53.41] And evening full of the linnet's wings.
[02:02.60]
[02:35.83] I will arise and go now, for always night and day
[02:47.02] I hear the water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
[03:00.30] While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
[03:12.38] I hear it in the deep heart's core.
[03:27.27] OH~
