William Blake (28 November 1757–12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter, and print maker. Largely unrecognized during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of both the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic age. His prophetic poetry has been said to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language". His visual artistry has led one modern critic to proclaim him "far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced". Although he only once journeyed farther than a day's walk outside London during his lifetime, he produced a diverse and symbolically rich corpus, which embraced the imagination as "the body of God", or "Human existence itself"

Considered mad by contemporaries for his idiosyncratic views, Blake is held in high regard by later critics for his expressiveness and creativity, and for the philosophical and mystical undercurrents within his work. His paintings and poetry have been characterized as part of both the Romantic Movement and "Pre-Romantic", for its large appearance in the 18th century. Reverent of the Bible but hostile to the church of England, Blake was influenced by the ideals and ambitions of the French and American revolution, as well as by such thinkers as Jakob bohme and Emanuel Swedenborg.

Despite these known influences, the singularity of Blake's work makes him difficult to classify. The 19th century scholar William Rossetti characterized Blake as a "glorious luminary," and as "a man not forestalled by predecessors, or to be classed with contemporaries, or to be replaced by known or readily surmisable successors."

Historian peter Marshall has classified Blake as one of the forerunners of modern anarchism, along with Blake's contemporary William Godwin.

LOVE'S SECRET

by: William Blake (1757-1827)

NEVER seek to tell thy love,

Love that never told can be;

For the gentle wind doth move

Silently, invisibly.

I told my love, I told my love,

I told her all my heart,

Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears.

Ah! she did depart!

Soon after she was gone from me,

A traveller came by,

Silently, invisibly:

He took her with a sigh.

Why are married men so attractive?

Do you really find married men attractive and wonder why all the good men are taken? Well, then you’re surely eyeing a married man, aren’t you? But, ever tried thinking about why do women perceive married men to be better than single men? Let’s try and dig deeper into the same.

Men often ponder over why women can’t stop drooling over them or flirting with them in spite of knowing that they are married.

Quite strangely, women often fall for married men and start comparing them with the single men around. Studies show that though married men are not inherently better than single men yet women judge them to be better than single men. A married man is taken to have a strange attraction associated with him.

So, what’s it that makes women go weak in their knees when it comes to a married man? Well, it’s nothing but the pure women psyche that goes like this- Women are more sensitive to the choices made by other women i.e. a married man, who is already taken by some other woman has made a commitment to a certain someone and it is this very commitment that attracts other women.

In short, women want men to commit to a long term relationship and that’s what makes a married man highly enviable, so, the next time you start getting hots for a married guy, simply go and find the man (single) who is willing to commit to you and that’ll be the end of your woes.
