A past that Icarus cannot forget and desires. Fields makes the poem take place in a place where Icarus “rented a house and tended the garden.” He goes on commuter train and wears gray suits. The portrayal is that of absolute commonness – no sense of identity‚ no sense of being special. Yet in this down-to-earth

Just for a handful of silver he left us‚ Just for a ribbon to stick in his coat--- Found the one gift of which fortune bereft us‚ Lost all the others she lets us devote; They‚ with the gold to give‚ doled him out silver‚ So much was theirs who so little allowed: How all our copper had gone for his service! Rags---were they purple‚ his heart had been proud! We that had loved him so‚ followed him‚ honoured him‚ Lived in his mild and magnificent eye‚ Learned his great language
