The Pickering Manuscript is a collection of poems and illustrations by the celebrated English poet and artist William Blake. The manuscript was created in the early 19th century and is named after its original owner, the publisher William Pickering. The book contains 26 poems, including some of Blake's most famous works such as The Tyger and The Chimney Sweeper, as well as lesser-known pieces like The Little Girl Found and The Little Girl Lost. Each poem is accompanied by a hand-drawn illustration, which adds to the overall artistic value of the book. The Pickering Manuscript is considered a rare and valuable artifact of Blake's work, as it was one of only a few manuscripts that he produced during his lifetime. The book is a must-read for fans of Blake's poetry and art, as well as anyone interested in the Romantic period of English literature.Her Fairy skipp'd out and her Fairy skipp'd in; He laugh'd at the Devil, saying Love is a sin.' The Devil he raged, and the Devil he was wroth, And the Devil enter'd into the young man's broth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
