    Betweeen his two eternities,
    That of race and that of soul,
    And ancient Ireland knew it all.

    Or the rifle knocks him dead,”

    “That crazed girl improvising her music,
    Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,
    Her soul in division from itself
    Climbing, falling she knew not where,
    Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship
    Her knee-cap broken.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
