TO NOBODADDY by WILLIAM BLAKE

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHY ART THOU SILENT AND INVISIBLE
Last Line: GAINS FEMALES LOUD APPLAUSE
Subject(s): BIBLE; JEALOUSY; MYTHOLOGY;

Why art thou silent and invisible
Father of jealousy
Why dost thou hide thyself in clouds
From every searching Eye

Why darkness & obscurity
In all thy words & laws
That none dare eat the fruit but from
The wily serpents jaws
Or is it because Secresy
gains females loud applause
