A Coat BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS


"A Coat" on a wall in Leiden

A Coat

I made my song a coat 
Covered with embroideries 
Out of old mythologies 
From heel to throat; 
But the fools caught it, 
Wore it in the world’s eyes 
As though they’d wrought it. 
Song, let them take it
For there’s more enterprise 
In walking naked.
