Portée et contenu
A millennium candle in its original box. The outside is a green cylinder with swirls and a stylised 2000 logo in gold writing. The candle itself is white with the same stylised 2000 in gold around the top and bottom. Wrapped around the candle is a piece of paper with the picture of a candle and the quote
'When Time began to rant and rage
The measure of her flying feet
Made Ireland's heart begin to beat;
And Time bade all his candles flare
To light a measure here and there;
W. B. Yeats, 'To Ireland in the Coming Times''
