Plate 39[35]
Line 6, "For Human beauty knows it not; nor can Mercy find it!
But", has been crowded into a stanza break, after the initial inscription of
the page but before etching. The indention of the first word should be taken
as still marking a new paragraph.
Line 10, "And here begins the System of Moral Virtue, named
Rahab.", is similarly crowded in before etching but not indented. I should
be inclined still to treat the following line as a new paragraph, but Blake's
final intention is not plain.
