His last words concerning his purpose of fasting were, “because I couldn’t find the food I liked. If I had found it, believe me, I should have made no fuss and stuffed myself like you or anyone else.” After he was buried, the circus put a young, healthy, panther in his cage.

‘The falcon cannot hear the falconer’, the use of the particular bird, a falcon, a powerful force that has escaped its master. It symbolises a loss of control, which could be related to many aspects of the world. All previous strong held beliefs are coming apart and are causing anarchy in the world. It could symbolise the gradual movement of mankind away from God or religion; and it could also convey Yeats’s fear of technology progressing out of man’s control. He was concerned that it could inflict lots of harm at great ease, an idea that was reinforced by the atrocities of World War 1 which created destruction that many people had never seen before.
The light in the café is man-made or artificial and can be turned off; giving us the sense that it can only be a temporary and incomplete relief from the emptiness of the dark. The light that shone on the brass number that was on the collar of the passing soldier is perhaps an indication of how meaningful this soldiers’ life was, which can be further emphasized in that he had a companion next to him. The old man likes to go to the café late at night “because he was deaf and now at night it was quiet and he felt the difference”. Daytime, with its busy streets, probably reminded him of his disconnection from the world, while the darkness of the night made him feel as if he was not missing out on much. In essence, being deaf can bring him darkness and a separation from the rest of the world which can be the symbolic reason why he chooses to sit in the shadow of the well-lighted café.
