PRELUDIUM TO THE BOOK OF URIZEN
Table of Contents
Of the primeval Priests assum'd power,
When Eternals spurn'd back his religion;
And gave him a place in the north,
Obscure, shadowy, void, solitary.
Eternals I hear your call gladly,
Dictate swift winged words, & fear not
To unfold your dark visions of torment.
Plate 3
Chap: I
Table of Contents

In Eternity! Unknown, unprolific!

This soul-shudd'ring vacuum?--Some said
It is Urizen
, But unknown, abstracted
Brooding secret,
