The Attack on 'The Playboy of the Western World,' 1907 (Author: William Butler Yeats)

p.40

1. Once, when midnight smote the air,
   Eunuchs ran through Hell and met
   From thoroughfare to thoroughfare,
   While that great Juan galloped by;
   And like these to rail and sweat
   Staring upon his sinewy thigh.
