Then he asks the important question, Was it needless decease at last? The speaker does not know how he feels about this countrymen cornering into rebels who could storm a government building and resist administration.
Yeats was more interested in the private than the political. Instead of asserting a deeply held belief about anyone political stance, he would make ambiguous drama out of political issues, even something as mysterious as the independence of his natural land.
In Easter, 1916, the speaker delivers 6 stanzas of these mild dramas that swirl approximately the Easter Rising event and the athletes who took chapter, some of whom Yeats had understood personally.

The others are Patrick Pearse, who established a school and his friend who helped at the school, Thomas MacDonagh.
Polite Meaningless Words
In the ultimate stanza, he say
But the speaker of this poem is extra interested in their possibilities as writers and talents. About Pearse, he rode our winged horse [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and allusion to Pegasus, the winged horse of poetry. About MacDonagh, he demands [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], He might have triumphed fame in the end, / So sensitive his ecology appeared, / So bravery and sweet his thought.
Dramatic Musings
He memoranda that the mood of Ireland later the Rising is that human are stirred up and ready apt fight because independence from England, yet he too demonstrates that he namely no for excited about the feasibility for they are. While strong-willed patriots would find independence of their homeland a profoundly smart thing, this speaker portrays it as a dreadful charm, about which he remains ambivalent.
Although Yeats had served as a senator in the first Irish senate, his opinion toward politics in common is best summarized by the lines from his mini poem, Politics: How tin I, that girl standing there, / My care fix / On Roman alternatively on Russian / Or on Spanish politics? . . . But O that I were young again / And held her in my arms!
