The contents trace two contrasting cycles, including “Songs of Innocence” poems such as “A Cradle Song,” “The Shepherd,” and “The Echoing Green,” and “Songs of Experience” selections like “The Sick Rose” and “The Tiger.” Through lyrical imagery and symbolic figures, the work invites reflection on innocence, perception, and moral truth.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/","Literature",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/songs-of-innocence-and-experience-william-blake/420690/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/songs-of-innocence-and-experience-william-blake/420690.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Blue

glee,On a cloud I saw a child,And he laughing said to me:'Pipe a song about a Lamb!'So I piped with merry cheer.'Piper,pipe that song again.'So l piped:he wept to hear'Drop thy pipe,thy happy pipe;Sing thy songs of happy cheer!\"So I sung the same again,While he wept with joy to hear.'Piper,sit thee down and writeIn a book,that all may read.'So he vanished from my sight;And I plucked a hollow reed,And Imade a rural pen,And I stained the water clear,And I wrote my happy songsEvery child may joy to hear.  \nSONGS OF INNOCENCE AND EXPERIENCE  \nTHE SHEPHERD  \nHow sweet is the shepherd's sweetlot!From the morn to the evening he strays;He shall follow his sheepall the day,And his tongue shall be filled with praise.For he hears the lambs'innocent call,And he hears the ewes'tender reply;He is watchful while they are in peace,For they know when their shepherd is nigh.  \nTHE ECHOING GREEN  \nThe sun does arise,  \nAnd make happy the skies;The merry bells ringTo welcome the Spring;The skylark and thrush,The birds of the bush,Sing louder around  \nTo the bells'cheerful sound;While our sports shall be seenOn the echoing green.","cbCainoSEgovU44k","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainoSEgovU44k","pdf",1832237,"English","# Songs of Innocence\n## Introduction\n## A Cradle Song\n## The Shepherd\n## The Divine Image\n## The
