Blake turned himself into the Ancient Bard he envisioned himself as, mythologising himself as this prophet of the two sides of humanity he saw. So lovingly describing the innocence and sweet natural state of humans that is inevitably corrupted by their experience on Earth with other people. He sings visions that come from somewhere beyond himself, and the way he communicates them, preserved in this edition on florid etching plates, is something special and unique that lifts the verses above the simplicity with which I might otherwise see rhymes so old.
