• How can they know
  Truth flourishes where the student's lamp has shone,
  And there alone, that have no solitude?
  So the crowd come they care not what may come.
  They have loud music, hope every day renewed
  And heartier loves; that lamp is from the tomb.

  William Butler Yeats

  Truth, Solitude, Lamps

  That fancied goodness might be gay,
  And sick of solitude
  Might proclaim a holiday:
  Wind shrieked and where are they?
