A Divine Image
William Blake
1757 to 1827
Cruelty has a human heart,
And Jealousy a human face;
Terror the human form divine,
And Secrecy the human dress.
The human dress is forgèd iron,
The human form a fiery forge,
The human face a furnace sealed,
The human heart its hungry gorge.
William Blake's A Divine Image
I am busy working to bring William Blake's "A Divine Image" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about William Blake's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "A Divine Image" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
