1. What kind of place is Innisfree? Think about:(i) the three things the poet wants to do when he goes back there (stanza I);(ii) what he hears and sees there and its effect on him (stanza II);(iii) what he hears in his “heart’s core” even when he is far away from Innisfree (stanza III).2. By now you may have concluded that Innisfree is a simple, natural place, full of beauty and peace. How does the poet contrast it with where he now stands? (Read stanza III).3. Do you think Innisfree is only a place, or a state of mind? Does the poet actually miss the place of his boyhood days?
