Yeats explores the tension between the real world and the ideal world in many of his poems. The natural world‚ rich with the peaceful sounds of honey-bees and ‘linnet’s wings’‚ is compared to the greyness of city life. He contrasts the heroic idealism of the patriots who died for Ireland with the drab merchant class who ‘add the halfpence to the pence.’ Elsewhere his poetry is alive with the tension between the feverish mortal life of ‘fish‚ flesh and foul’ and the desire for immortality. In his
