William Blake - The Clod and the Pebble
Work rating: Medium

"Love seeketh not itself to please,   
Nor for itself hath any care,  
But for another gives its ease, 
And builds a heaven in hell`s despair."

So sung a little clod of clay,
Trodden with the cattle`s feet;
But a pebble of the brook 
Warbled out these meters meet: 

"Love seeketh only Self to please,
To bind another to its delight,
Joys in another`s loss of ease,
And builds a hell in heaven`s despite."
