A Terrible Beauty called Marian Price









"That woman's days were spent


In ignorant good-will,


Her nights in argument


Until her voice grew shrill.


What voice more sweet than hers


When, young and beautiful,


She rode to harriers?


This man had kept a school


And rode our winged horse;


This other his helper and friend


Was coming into his force;


He might have won fame in the end,


So sensitive his nature seemed,


So daring and sweet his thought.


This other man I had dreamed


A drunken, vainglorious lout.


He had done most bitter wrong


To some who are near my heart,


Yet I number him in the song;


He, too, has resigned his part


In the casual comedy;


He, too, has been changed in his turn,


Transformed utterly:


A terrible beauty is born.



-----




Too long a sacrifice


Can make a stone of the heart.


O when may it suffice?


That is Heaven's part, our part


To murmur name upon name,


As a mother names her child


When sleep at last has come


On limbs that had run wild.


What is it but nightfall?


No, no, not night but death;


Was it needless death after all?


For England may keep faith


For all that is done and said.


We know their dream; enough


To know they dreamed and are dead;


And what if excess of love


Bewildered them till they died?


I write it out in a verse -


MacDonagh and MacBride


And Connolly and Pearse


Now and in time to be,


Wherever green is worn,


Are changed, changed utterly:


A terrible beauty is born. "





Two verses from the Poem,





A Terrible Beauty is Born





WB Yeats
