W. B. Yeats

The Cloak, the Boat and the Shoes

‘What do you make so fair and bright?’
 
‘I make the cloak of Sorrow:
O lovely to see in all men’s sight
Shall be the cloak of Sorrow,
In all men’s sight.’
 
‘What do you build with sails for flight?’
 
‘I build a boat for Sorrow:
O swift on the seas all day and night
Saileth the rover Sorrow,
All day and night.’
 
What do you weave with wool so white?’
 
‘I weave the shoes of Sorrow:
Soundless shall be the footfall light
In all men’s ears of Sorrow,
Sudden and light.’
