I cave

Well, I tried to explicate W. B. Yeat's poem "When You are Old" as a seize the dame poem, but I just couldn't support it as well as I would have liked with textual evidence. I ended up translating it for what it really is... a beautiful love poem. I just thought most of the girls in the class would appreciate me finally coming around! I had a great semester with you all and hope the rest of the year goes well for you.

By the way, despite my coming around on that last poem, I still think "Sound and Sense" is a good purchase!
