To be Carved On A Stone At Thoor Ballylee
by William Butler Yeats
I, THE poet William Yeats,
With old mill boards and sea-green slates,
And smithy work from the Gort forge,
Restored this tower for my wife George;
And may these characters remain
When all is ruin once again.

How neat, Conor. I forgot he had written that poem about the tower.... and his wife, George...hehe.
