I say... this is a tough nut to crack...<br /><br />what first caught my eye was your turn of phrase "the inevitable tree" -- and then "the (equally) inevitable serpent" -- <br /><br />any chance you could add some hypertext links? -- or the "labels" off to the left? -- for such important terms in your commentary as:<br />tree<br />serpent<br />Orc<br />Ulro<br /><br />I'm afraid I've never gained the ability to easily look up such terms online, or if I do, by the time I find them I can't remember why I was looking them up...<br /><br />Maybe you could put a "search" box on the main blog page, or a link to an online edition of... what's the name of the Blake Dictionary author? I have his book somewhere, but usually not handy...<br /><br />Anyway, just suggestions. In truth I know my time would be better spent studying the image and Blake's words alongside, than chasing references... OK, OK, that's what I'll do now.Susan J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07676460547965873094noreply@blogger.com
