| Notes | Poet's disillusionment with Irish neutrality during World War II, and the country's disconnection from European affairs during this time. The poet clearly sees this in terms of failure, opining that the Irish have left the next generation without the heritage of bravery or love. The war years (1939-1945) are specified in the title of this translation. |
