The tone is kind of like a dream. He thinks that if he moves away he will have a peaceful life away from everyone else.  He will have everything for himself. It will kind of be like something he is doing to better himself. 

Byzantium
This is about a guy who is older and he is kind of looking back on his life. He is not really sure this is where be belongs because it does not really feel that way. Sometimes people think that an aged man is worthless, but he knows that is not true. When he goes to Byzantium, he feels better and appropriates the stuff there.

Reminiscing about the past and knowing that sooner or later that it'll all pass. Like when age hits you it'll get harder and harder to make memories, good memories.

Sailing to Byzantium: He is too old for the country he lives in because it is too harsh and he wants to sail to Byzantium]]> 2017-03-22 16:18:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/yeatspoetry5/wish/161878301 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/yeatspoetry5/wish/161878931 The Lake Idle of Innisfree: I feel like when Yeats says that he will "arise and go now," he is talking about breaking away from where ever he is at the moment. I feel like Yeats is saying that he is going to separate himself from society, and move out by himself to Innisfree, where instead of hearing the noise of other people, he will only hear the noise of the bees, crickets, and "water lapping with low sounds by the shore."

Sailing to Byzantium: "That is no country for old men." Yeats is talking about a society were everything old is thrown out. There is no culture or respect for history, there is only a drive to move forward and leave the old behind. He wants to leave that type of society and travel to Byzantium, where culture is respected.

Sailing to Byzantium: In the beginning, it was sad because the man felt no respect from the society that was advancing.
