Included here are such celebrated, lyrical poems as "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" and "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven," as well as Yeats's imaginative retellings of Irish fairytales-including his first major poem, "The Wanderings of Oisin," based on a Celtic fable-and his critical writings, which offer a fascinating window onto his artistic theories.
