“The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
The glittering spears are ranked ready;

Nor shout o war thats heard afar,
Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”

And round the tent of Godlike lambs we joy,
Ill shade him from the heat till he can bear
To lean in joy upon our fathers knee;
And then Ill stand and stroke his silver hair,
And be like him, and he will then love me.”
—William Blake (17571827)
