English poet & painter (1757-1827)
Love to faults is always blind,
Always is to joys inclined,
Lawless, winged, and unconfined,
And breaks all chains from every mind.
WILLIAM BLAKE

Active Evil is better than Passive Good.

They suppose that Woman's Love is Sin; in consequence all the Loves & Graces with them are Sin.
