The Chimney Sweeper : A Little Black Thing Among The Snow
Written by : William Blake
A little black thing among the snow.
Crying "weep! weep!" in notes of woe!
"Where are thy father and mother? Say?"
"They are both gone up to the church to pray."
Because I was happy upon the heath.
And smil'd among the winters snow.
They clothed me in the clothes of death.
And taught me to sing in the notes of woe.
And because I am happy
They think they have done me no injury
And are gone to praise God and his Priest and king.
Who make up a heaven of our misery."
