William Blake 1757-1827

Motto to the Songs of Innocence & of Experience

The Good are attracted by Men's perceptions

And think not for themselves,

Till Experience teaches them to catch

And to Cage the Fairies & Elves.



And then the Knave begins to snarl,

And the Hypocrite to howl,

And all his good friends show their private ends,

And the Eagle is known from the Owl.
