W.B. Yeats (1865–1939).  The Wild Swans at Coole.  1919.

26. A Deep-sworn Vow


OTHERS because you did not keep 
That deep-sworn vow have been friends of mine; 
Yet always when I look death in the face, 
When I clamber to the heights of sleep, 
Or when I grow excited with wine,         5
Suddenly I meet your face.
