Blake William.
Songs Of Innocence And Of Experience shewing the Two Contrary States of the Human Soul.
London: W. Pickering Chancery Lane and W. Newbery 6 Chenies Street Bedford Square 1839. Small 8vo xxi 3 74 pp. Original pebbled plum cloth upper cover lettered in gilt partly worn away as often a very good copy in a variant original binding slightly worn around the edges upper hinge a touch weak internally bright and very attractive. Enclosed in a modern protective box. § First Typographical Issue the issue with the poem “The Little Vagabond†not present - this has long been held to be the first issue see Keynes although others have claimed that it was present but cancelled due to content and thus this is the second issue. Either case is plausible; copies of each issue turn up with about the same frequency which is to say very rarely. The preface by J.J. Garth Wilkinson gives a mostly favorable account of Blake’s life in the context of his work and concludes stirringly: “If the volume gives one impulse to the New Spiritualism which is now dawning on the world;-if it leads one reader to think that all Reality for him in the long run lies out of the limits of space and time; and that spirits and not bodies and still less garments are men; if it gives one blow even the faintest to those term-shifting juggleries which usurp the name of “Philosophical Systems†and all the energies of all the forms of genuine Truth must be henceforth expended on these effects it will have done its work in its little day.†Keynes Blake 135 issue without “The Little Vagabond". Bentley Blake Books 171 this issue said by Bentley to have two leaves cancelled by the editor out of prudishness. W. Pickering hardcover

Blake William.
Songs of Innocence and of Experience showing the two contrary states of the human soul. edited and prefaced by Richard Herne Sheperd.
Small 8vo. London: Pickering 1868. Small 8vo xiv 112 pp. and 8 pp. of ads at the front. Original cloth red printed paper backstrip label darkened some pencil annotations in the text. A very good copy. Ink signature at front of Wm. C. Pritchard. § New edition taken largely from the 1866 edition with some slight changes including an expanded preface and two more poems. Although a typographic issue of the Songs had appeared in 1839 and Gilchrist and Rossetti had included them in the 1863 biography neither of those versions were faithful to Blake’s original text with Rossetti in particular standing accused of efforts at “improvementâ€. The editor of this edition Richard Herne Shepherd gives for the first time in accessible form the exact text of Blake’s idiosyncratic engraved publications of 1789 and 1794 only twenty-two complete copies of each of which survive though omitting lines from “Mary†and from “Auguries of Innocence†which contained the word “whoreâ€. The additional poems two of them previously unpublished are printed from Blake’s original manuscripts. Bentley Blake Books 335 B. Pickering hardcover

Blake William
Songs Of Innocence and of Experience
San Marino. 2008. November 2008. Huntington Library Press. 1st Printing of This Edition. Very Good in Hardcover. No Dustjacket As Issued. ISBN:9780873282369. Edited by Robert N. Essick. 256 pages. hardcover. Cover illustration By William Blake. FROM THE PUBLISHER - SONGS OF INNOCENCE AND OF EXPERIENCE are Blake�s most familiar poems. A few examples such as �The Tyger� and �The Chimney Sweeper� frequently appear in anthologies of English literature in which the poems are often printed without Blake�s evocative engravings. But Blake made collections of his Songs first the INNOCENCE group alone in 1789 and then EXPERIENCE in 1794 combining the two in that year to make up a single volume. This facsimile edition is based on a unique copy in the collection of the Huntington Library that shows how Blake used coloring style and pen and ink additions to make a unified book out of fifty-four individual engravings. Based on new digital photography this edition also captures the designs and coloring as closely as possible. The plates are followed by a transcription of the poems. Robert N. Essick�s commentary includes a brief biography of Blake and interprets each poem in dialogue with the other Songs. Essick also explores the political and historical contexts of the poems. Newcomers to Blake will find a thorough grounding in his unusual art and language while experts will encounter fresh discoveries. inventory #36614 ISBN: 9780873282369. hardcover
