The Triptych of Light

The Sick Rose

O Rose thou art sick,

The invisible worm,

That fies in the night

In the howling storm

Has found out thy bed

Of crimson joy

And his dark secret love

Does thy life destroy.

But Luvah & Vala standing in the bloody sky

On high remaind alone forsaken in ferce jealousy

Tey stood above the heavens forsaken desolate suspended in blood

Descend they could not. nor from Each other avert their eyes

Eternity appeard above them as One Man infolded

Tus she (Vala) lamented day &

night, compelld to labour & sorrow

Luvah in vain her lamentations heard; in vain his love

Brought him in various forms before her still she knew him not

Still she despisd him, calling on his name & knowing him not

Still hating still professing love, still labouring in the smoke.

-William Blake, "The Four Zoas",

Night the First and Night the Second.
