Yeats, William Butler...

This great Anglo-Irish poet was profoundly influenced by the occult, even from his boyhood days in sligo, Ireland, among country people with stories of the SECOND SIGHT and the EVIL EYE. Later he was initiated into the ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN in London. Occult symbols are frequent and fundamental in his poetry..........from BYZANTIUM : Before me floats an image ,man or shade, shade more than man, more image than a shade; for hades' bobbin bound in mummy cloth may unwind the unwinding path; a mouth that has no moisture and no breath . Breathless mouths may summon; I hail the superhuman; I call it death-in-life and life-in-death.
