Among School Children

I walk through the long school room questioning
A kind old nun in a white hood replies;
The children learn to cipher and to sing,
To study. reading books, and history,
To cut and sew, be neat in everything
In the best modern way-the children's eyes
In momentary wonder stare upon
A sixty year old smiling public man.

William Butler Yeats
