  1. sir,
    i was pouring through my yeats, trying to write an essay, when i came across this quote, loved it, naturally, put it into google and could in no way discover where it comes from (other than Yeats) or who Tulka is, other than some vague notion that it might be something Icelandic.
    Do you know?

    (some fine thoughts, by the way, some average, some absurd, but some very fine. keep on keeping on)
