‘His first important vision apparently happened when he was eight or ten, around 1766-1768, at Peckham Rye, near Dulwich Hill, and it was a tree filled with angels. When his father tried to thrash William for talking about this, the mother intervened; and it was she rather than the father who whipped him, when he told his parents about an encounter with Ezekiel.’
William Blake
