Chapter 19 cold sky

Selected Poems of Yeats 叶芝 206Words 2018-03-20
cold sky Suddenly I saw the cold, rook-pleasing sky It was as if ice were burning, and yet more ice appeared, And thus the imagination and the heart are driven wild so that this or that accidental thought Suddenly disappeared, leaving only memory, which should be outdated With the blood of youth, and the love that was written off long ago; And I take all the blame from all sense and reason, Till I cry and tremble and shake back and forth penetrated by light.Ah!when ghosts come back to life Death bed chaos is over, has it been naked Sent to the way, as the book says, by God's Hit by injustice, as punishment?
