An elderly Irish woman stopped, and we chatted, swans are sacred in Celtic tradition to St Brigid: she said "Yeats wrote right about them" But now they drift on the still water,    Mysterious, beautiful;    Among what rushes will they build, By what lake's edge or pool Delight men's eyes when I awake some day    To find they have flown away?
