To my dear Friend Mrs Anna Flaxman |
The Poetry and Prose of William Blake | ||
To my dear Friend Mrs Anna Flaxman
H[ercules] B[uildings] Lambeth, 14 Sepr 1800
This Song to the flower of Flaxmans joy
To the blossom of hope for a sweet decoy
Do all that you can or all that you may
To entice him to Felpham & far away
To the blossom of hope for a sweet decoy
Do all that you can or all that you may
To entice him to Felpham & far away
Away to Sweet Felpham for Heaven is there
The Ladder of Angels descends thro the air
On the Turret its spiral does softly descend
Thro' the village then winds at My Cot i[t] does end
The Ladder of Angels descends thro the air
681
Thro' the village then winds at My Cot i[t] does end
You stand in the village & look up to heaven
The precious stones glitter on flights seventy seven
And My Brother is there & My Friend & Thine
Descend & Ascend with the Bread & the Wine
The precious stones glitter on flights seventy seven
And My Brother is there & My Friend & Thine
Descend & Ascend with the Bread & the Wine
The Bread of sweet Thought & the Wine of Delight
Feeds the Village of Felpham by day & by night
And at his own door the blessd Hermit does stand
Dispensing Unceasing to all the whole Land
Feeds the Village of Felpham by day & by night
And at his own door the blessd Hermit does stand
Dispensing Unceasing to all the whole Land
W. Blake
