(words by william blake [1757 - 1827])
2
I wander through each chartered street,
3
Near where the chartered thames does flow,
4
And mark in every face I meet
5
Marks of weakness, marks of woe
6
In every cry of every man,
7
In every infant's cry of fear,
8
In every voice, in every ban,
9
The mind-forged manacles I hear.
10
How the chimney-sweeper's cry
11
Every blackening church appalls,
12
And the hapless soldier's sigh
13
Runs in blood down palace walls
14
But most, through midnight streets I hear
15
How the youthful harlot's curse
16
Blasts the new-born infant's tear
17
And blights with plagues the marriage hearse
18
I wander through each chartered street,
19
Near where the chartered thames does flow,
20
And mark in every face I meet
21
Marks of weakness, marks of woe
