    that sleep all the year in a dark box

    and i’ll give them all to you to hold”

    “When have I last looked on
    The round green eyes and the long wavering bodies
    Of the dark leopards of the moon?
    All the wild witches, those most noble ladies,
    For all their broom-sticks and their tears,
    Their angry tears, are gone.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Innocence sweetens my last black breath,
    Modesty hides my thighs in her wings,
    And all the deadly virtues plague my death!”
