“I went to the Garden of Love
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And The Gates of this Chapel were shut,
And ‘Thou Shalt Not’ writ over the door…

And Priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys & desires.”

- William Blake
