‘One
day when I was twenty-three or twenty-four this sentence seemed to form
in my head, without my willing it, much as sentences form when we are

into unity’.

by that sentence [...]” William Butler Yeats (cited in Frank Tuohy, Yeats, 1976, p.51 )> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FS301
