William Butler Yeats Quote

This great purple butterfly,
In the prison of my hands,
Has a learning in his eye
Not a poor fool understands.


Selected Poems (ed. 1921)


This great purple butterfly, In the prison of my hands, Has a learning in his eye Not a poor fool understands.

This great purple butterfly, In the prison of my hands, Has a learning in his eye Not a poor fool understands.

This great purple butterfly, In the prison of my hands, Has a learning in his eye Not a poor fool understands.

This great purple butterfly, In the prison of my hands, Has a learning in his eye Not a poor fool understands.
