    “Many times man lives and dies
    Betweeen his two eternities,
    That of race and that of soul,
    And ancient Ireland knew it all.
    Whether man die in his bed
    Or the rifle knocks him dead,”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Moon!
    I am prone before you.
    Pity me,
    And drench me in loneliness.”
