// Output:
// I have met them at close of day
// Coming with vivid faces
// From counter or desk among grey
// Eighteenth-century houses.
// I have passed with a nod of the heae
// Or polite meaningless words,
// Or have lingered awhile and said
// Polite meaningless words,
// And thought before I had done
// Of a mocking tale or a gibe
// To please a companion
// Around the fire at the club,
// Being certain that they and I
// But lived where motley is worn:
// All changed, changed utterly:
// A terrible beauty is born.
// That woman's days were spent
// In ignorant good will,
// Her nights in argument
// Until her voice grew shrill.
// What voice more sweet than hers
// When young and beautiful,
// She rode to harriers?
// This man had kept a school
// And rode our winged horse.
// This other his helper and friend
// Was coming into his force;
// He might have won fame in the end,
// So sensitive his nature seemed,
// So daring and sweet his thought.
// This other man I had dreamed
// A drunken, vain-glorious lout.
// He had done most bitter wrong
// To some who are near my heart,
// Yet I number him in the song;
// He, too, has resigned his part
// In the casual comedy;
// He, too, has been changed in his tus
// Transformed utterly:
// A terrible beauty is born.

// Stuff the program did not get correctly:
//  1. On the 5th line, 'heae' -> 'head'
//  2. On the 38th line, 'tus ' -> 'turn'
