W.B. Yeats (1865–1939).  Responsibilities and Other Poems.  1916.

18. The Realists


HOPE that you may understand! 
What can books of men that wive 
In a dragon-guarded land, 
Paintings of the dolphin-drawn 
Sea-nymphs in their pearly waggons         5
Do, but awake a hope to live 
That had gone 
With the dragons?
