Excerpt from Blake's Vision of the Book of Job: With Reproductions of the Illustrations
Yet Blake's prophetic books, with all their apparent formless ness and even monstrosity, exercise from the first a certain nameless spell. Whether their professed interpreters have penetrated to their secret or not, we find it impossible not to believe that they do hold in their unearthly imagery some coherent meaning, and the meaning of the writer of the Songs of Experience, and of The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, seems always worth exploring.
