A postcolonial reading of Yeats' "The Realists".

HOPE that you may understand!
What can books of men that wive
In a dragon-guarded land,
Paintings of the dolphin-drawn
Sea-nymphs in their pearly wagons
Do, but awake a hope to live
That had gone
With the dragons?

— W. B. Yeats, Responsibilities (1914)
