But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
Those two simple lines by Irish poet WB Yeats were probs what every secondary school student remembers from English class, an education in messages about love that were a far cry from “u out?”
Now, true romantics, you could even call the former home of WB Yeats your very own. No. 52 Merrion Square is up for sale for a cool €3.5 million and while Yeats spent the majority of his life living down the road in no. 82 (owned by Maud Gonne the dream treader) he lived her for a while.
The four-bed townhouse is a magnificent Georgian residence of four storeys over abasement with views over Merrion Square, Mount Street and The Pepper Canister Church.
