Description:
|
Verses from Night the Third. Illustration: his guardian angel sent to reprove a mourner for his improper indulgence of sorrow on the tomb of his friend: with one hand the angel touches the object of his errand, and with the other points to those realms of light in which the deceased was at rest from his labours. The engraving has been hand coloured by William Blake.
