FOREST FANTASY HORROR: ‘The Stolen Child’ by William Butler Yeats

#horror #horrorstories #books #fantasy #fairy #forest #missing #forestsounds

‘Where dips the rocky highland Of Sleuth Wood in the lake,

There lies a leafy island

Where flapping herons wake

The drowsy water rats;

There we’ve hid our faery vats,

Full of berrys

And of reddest stolen cherries.

Come away, O human child!

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand,

For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.’

— William Butler Yeats (The Stolen Child)

  1. Away with us he’s going,
    The solemn-eyed:
    He’ll hear no more the lowing
    Of the calves on the warm hillside
    Or the kettle on the hob
    Sing peace into his breast,
    Or see the brown mice bob
    Round and round the oatmeal chest.
    For he comes, the human child,
    To the waters and the wild
    With a faery, hand in hand,
    For the world’s more full of weeping than he can understand.

    –William Butler Yeats (The Stolen Child)
