A mermaid found a swimming lad, <br />Picked him for her own, <br />Pressed her body to his body, <br />Laughed; and plunging down <br />Forgot in cruel happiness <br />That even lovers drown.<br /><br />William Butler Yeats<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-man-young-and-old-iii-the-mermaid/
