Even after a cursory glance at this poem by Yeats, readers will immediately think of two famous landscape poets in the history of Chinese and English literature: Tao Yuanming and Wordsworth.
People are accustomed to simply regard this poem by Yeats as a concise, bright, and slightly sad pastoral landscape poem.
However, Yeats's poem is very different from Dow's and Fahrenheit's poems. The natural life of Tao Yuanming and Wordsworth is real and concrete, while the natural life of Yeats is fictional and ethereal.
From the perspective of modernity, this poem reflects the common psychological desire of modern people: to get rid of the monotony of modern life and return to the peaceful world of pastoral pastoral.
