Verse of this poem:
He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and
silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths of night and
light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under
your feet; tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
W.B.Yeats
