First words

Ireland is a small country in transition from a glorious but troubled past to a bright future.

PART I: THE COUNTRY OF IRELAND

THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREE

W. B. YEATS (1865-1939)

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,

And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:

Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,

And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
