Yeat’s poem: To-morrow is chiefly noted as the venue of Yeats’s“Leda and the Swan”, and after that for Lennox Robinson’s contribution“The Madonna of Slieve Dun” in which a girl is raped by a tramp and comes to believe she is to give birth to the new Christ - a story which resulted in Robinson’s his dismissal from the post of Librarian to the Plunkett Foundation libraries.
