TO ENGLISH CONNOISSEURS by WILLIAM BLAKE

Poet Analysis

First Line: YOU MUST AGREE THAT RUBENS WAS A FOOL
Last Line: AND NOT A BREWERS SERVANT MY GOOD SIR
Subject(s): ART & ARTISTS; BIBLE; CRITICS & CRITICISM; MYTHOLOGY; RUBENS, PETER PAUL (1577-1640);
You must agree that Rubens was a Fool
And yet you make him master of Your School
And give more money for his Slobberings
Than you will give for Rafaels finest Things
I understood Christ was a Carpenter
And not a Brewers Servant my good Sir
