III <br />Slim adolescence that a nymph has stripped, <br />Peleus on Thetis stares. <br />Her limbs are delicate as an eyelid, <br />Love has blinded him with tears; <br />But Thetis' belly listens. <br />Down the mountain walls <br />From where pan's cavern is <br />Intolerable music falls. <br />Foul goat-head, brutal arm appear, <br />Belly, shoulder, bum, <br />Flash fishlike; nymphs and satyrs <br />Copulate in the foam.<br /><br />William Butler Yeats<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/slim-adolescence-that-a-nymph-has-stripped-2/
