Beschreibung

Songs of Innocence and Songs of ExperienceThe Marriage of Heaven and HellOnce a dream did weave a shade O’er my angel-guarded bed, That an emmet lost its way Where on grass methought I lay. Troubled, wildered, and forlorn, Dark, benighted, travel-worn, Over many a tangled spray, All heart-broke, I heard her say: ‘ O my children! do they cry, Do they hear their father sigh? Now they look abroad to see, Now return and weep for me.’

INTRODUCTION

Piping down the valleys wild, Piping songs of pleasant glee,On a cloud I saw a child, And he laughing said to me: ‘ Pipe a song about a Lamb!’ So I piped with merry cheer.‘Piper, pipe that song again.’ So I piped: he wept to hear. ‘ Drop thy pipe, thy happy pipe; Sing thy songs of happy cheer!’So I sung the same again, While he wept with joy to hear. ‘ Piper, sit thee down and write In a book, that all may read.’So he vanished from my sight; And I plucked a hollow reed,And I made a rural pen, And I stained the water clear,And I wrote my happy songs Every child may joy to hear.
