Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;

Down by the salley gardens, my love and I did meet.

She passed the salley gardens with little snow-whitefeet.

With her slender feet like snowflakes, she walked towards the end of the garden.

She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;

She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;

But I, being young and foolish, with her did not agree.

But I, being young and foolish, did not agree with her.

In a field by the river my love and I did stand,

In the wilderness by the river in the distance, my love and I stood side by side.

And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.

On my slightly leaning shoulder, she laid her snow-white hand.

She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;

She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the bank.

But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.

But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.

Extended information:

"Down by the salley gardens" is an early poem by Yeats. His early poems had beautiful rhythm, delicate emotions, gorgeous rhetoric and rich symbolic meaning. They were obviously influenced by British Romanticism and French Symbolist poetry. ?

This poem has simple language and strong chantability like a folk song. Secondly, this poem is also unique in its use of tense. The whole poem is in past tense except for the last half line which is in present tense. This shows that the past is of great significance to people's present. At the end of the poem, the poet uses the present tense which is meaningful.

Although the description of the current situation ends abruptly with only five words, because the poet puts these words in the most prominent position in the whole poem, it gives people a feeling that the meaning is still unfinished, and readers can Use these words to feel the vast spiritual world of "I".
