Abstract
Unless you are one of his old friends, it is almost impossible to arrange a talk with W. B. Yeats. For more than a year I had been writing him letters in the attempt to fix an appointment. Each of the letters had been duly answered, from Ireland or Italy, but only after such long delay (the first letter after an interval of three months) that I had missed his passing through London. But at last I managed to reach him on the telephone at his London club, and we fixed a time and place for the following morning.
