English poem
THE NEW FACES
by W. B. Yeats
If you, that have grown old were the first dead Neither Caltapa tree nor scented lime Should hear my living feet, nor would I tread Where we wrought that shall break the teeth of time. Let the new faces play what tricks they will In the old rooms; night can outbalance day, Our shadows rove the garden gravel still, The living seem more shadowy than they.
