‘It being on the 23rd of June / As I sat weaving all by my loom,
It being on the 23rd of June / As I sat weaving all by my loom,
A birdie sang on an ivy bunch /And the song he sang was a jug of punch

100 years ago, November 14th 1923, William Butler Yeats was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, the first Irish citizen to achieve such an accolade. The prize was awarded ‘for his always inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation’.
