A Divine Image Comments

Blake was way ahead of his time. A visionary in both poetry and his paintings. Simply Divine!

A beautiful work from Blake, a prohet of human psychology. To my favorites

Cruelty has a human heart, And Jealousy a human face; Terror the human form divine, And Secresy the human dress......this expression is valid for time! Great

After reading this I feel like becoming a vegan. I have just eaten beef and now I feel like I was the one who murdered that innocent cow with beautiful big brown eyes. Cows never hurt me. Why did I eat her muscle? Shame on me and shame on humans who kill innocent brown eyed cows for food.

A contemporary work.

Great truth. throughout History, unfortunately! This poem timeless. Before I knew who the author was, I thought it was a contempy

I can feel the pulse of this poem... human heart

Only beast.

The human dress is forged iron, The human form a fiery forge, The human face a furnace sealed, The human heart its hungry gorge. wonderul thoughts

I like poetry of All kind.Sorrow one happy one.

Moderate .not so good so small.

Cruelty has a human heart And jealousy a human face Terror the human form divine And secrecy the human dress" Fantastic and stunning revelations.

It’s looked he painted the features of human with a few words

Add a comment.I am indeed inspired.... th imag is vivid

The second quad answers the first in reverse. a mirror image of personal experience and shared experience. what we create collectively is vying ambitions and this we call divine?

Aah, human nature.. I try to have faith, but...

The Divine image is really something, the author, Thomas Harris, used it in his novel Red Dragon. Along with Blake's painting, the great Red Dragon and the woman clothed with the sun. Phew! He was very gifted.

Very powerful stuff, phew! Must have been an interesting guy.

I see many misconceptions of this poem below. This is not some harsh critique of humanity, nor is it Blake denying the divines presence in humanity. It is the recognition of the wholeness of the divine. The wholeness of man. In this Blake accepts cruelty, jealousy, terror, and so on as essential products of mans divine essence.
