Description

It is well-known that W.B. Yeats modeled his 1891 poem "When You Are Old" on the sixteenth-century French poet Pierre de Ronsard's "Quand vous serez bien vieille." The poems share the theme of projecting the beloved into a future of old age and regret, a theme inspired by Petrarch's "Se la mia vita da l'aspro tormento." Each of the three love poets develops this theme distinctly, varying the speaker's approach of the beloved, his own self-portrayal, and the treatment of regret. **********
