William Blake (1757-1827) , English artist, mystic and poet wrote Songs of Innocence (1789): a poetry collection written from the child s point of view, of innocent wonderment and spontaneity in natural settings which includes Little Boy Lost, Little Boy Found and The Lamb;
In 1800, Blake moved to a cottage at Felpham, in Sussex (now West Sussex), to take up a job illustrating the works of William Hayley, a minor poet. It was in this cottage that Blake began Milton (the title page is dated 1804, but Blake continued to work on it until 1808).argely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age. His prophetic poetry has been said to form what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language.
