今天看到上外教授在B站的文学讲座，讲这首诗，深有感触。英诗的典范，从内容到押韵，都有可学的。
另外，这首诗的内容（故事）和风格，让我想起最近公园里广场舞的歌曲《可可托海的牧羊人》，歌曲中讲述的故事和男主人的悔恨之情，和大洋那边这位一百多年前的爱尔兰诗人此诗中。。。很类似。特此分享。

Down By The Salley Garden
By Yeats
Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
斯遇佳人，仙苑重深
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
玉人雪趾，往渡穿林
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
瞩我适爱，如叶逢春
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
我愚且顽，负此明言
In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
斯水之畔，与彼曾伫
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
比肩之处，玉手曾拂
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
嘱我适世，如荇随堰
But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.
惜我愚顽，唯余泣叹！
译文二：
