This excerpt is from the poem, 'Sailing to Byzantium' by William Butler Yeats

Explanation:

  • The line "aged man is but a paltry thing, / a tattered coat upon a stick refers to an old man's soul.
  • The poet says the country he had left was a country of youth and so he has moved to the holy city of Byzantium. He calls the saints as masters and asks them to be his soul's singing masters.
  • He says his heart is a stick with desire and it is attached to a dying animal. Yeats speaks about the agony of old age.
