About this book

Yeats dedicates these stories to A.E., saying they share one subject, the war of the spiritual order with the natural one. In the dedication he also holds that poetry comes from looking into oneself, not from famous moments of Irish history, though he calls the visionary side of the book Irish. A poem, To the Secret Rose, comes first, followed by stories including The Wisdom of the King, The Heart of the Spring, and The Old Men of the Twilight. It first appeared in 1897.
