    Satan, what ails you? Where’s the famous tongue?

    Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante,

    What climbs the stair?
    Nothing that common women ponder on
    If you are worth my hope! Neither Content
    Nor satisfied Conscience, but that great family
    Some ancient famous authors misrepresent,
    The Proud Furies each with her torch on high.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
