A Divine Image - By William Blake
Cruelty has a human heart,
And Jealousy a human face;
Terror the human form divine,
And Secresy the human dress.
The human dress is forged iron,
The human form a fiery forge,
The human face a furnace sealed,
The human heart its hungry gorge.
NOTE: Though written and engraved by Blake, "A DIVINE IMAGE" was
never included in the SONGS OF INNOCENCE AND OF EXPERIENCE.
