William Blake Quotes on Love (23 Quotes)

    And we are put on earth a little spaceThat we may learn to bear the beams of love.

    The look of love alarms
    Because 'tis fill'd with fire;
    But the look of soft deceit
    Shall Win the lover's hire.

    Eternity is in love with the productions of time.

    The look of love alarms Because tis filled with fire But the look of soft deceit Shall sin the lovers hire.
