from The Island of Statues
I plucked her backwards by her dress of green,
To question her – oh no, I did not fear,
Because St. Joseph's image hangeth here
Upon my necklace. But the goblin queen
Faded and vanished: nothing now is seen
Saving a green frog dead upon the grass.
As figures moving mirrored in a glass,
The singing shepherds, too, have passed away.
O Arcady, O Arcady, this day
A deal of evil and of change hath crossed
Thy peace.
– W.B. Yeats (1885)
