A Coat (Author: William Butler Yeats)

p.80

1. I made my song a coat
   Covered with embroideries
   Out of old mythologies
   From heel to throat;
   But the fools caught it,
   Wore it in the world's eye
   As though they'd wrought it.
   Song, let them take it
   For there's more enterprise
   In walking naked.
