Bath who is Legions: he is the Seventh, the physician and The poisoner: the best and worst in Heaven and Hell: Whose Spectre first assimilated with Luvah in Albions mountains A triple octave he took, to reduce Jerusalem to twelve 5To cast Jerusalem forth upon the wilds to Poplar & Bow: To Malden & Canterbury in the delights of cruelty: The Shuttles of death sing in the sky to Islington & Pancrass Round Marybone to Tyburns River, weaving black melancholy as a net, And despair as meshes closely wove over the west of London, 10Where mild Jerusalem sought to repose in death & be no more. She fled to Lambeths mild Vale and hid herself beneath The Surrey Hills where Rephaim terminates: her Sons are siez'd For victims of sacrifice; but Jerusalem cannot be found! Hid By the Daughters of Beulah: gently snatch'd away: and hid in Beulah 15There is a Grain of Sand in Lambeth that Satan cannot find Nor can his Watch Fiends find it: tis translucent & has many Angles But he who finds it will find Oothoons palace, for within Opening into Beulah every angle is a lovely heaven But should the Watch Fiends find it, they would call it Sin 20And lay its Heavens & their inhabitants in blood of punishment Here Jerusalem & Vala were hid in soft slumberous repose Hid from the terrible East, shut up in the South & West. The Twenty-eight trembled in Deaths dark caves, in cold despair They kneeld around the Couch of Death in deep humiliation 25And tortures of self condemnation while their Spectres ragd within. The Four Zoa's in terrible combustion clouded rage Drinking the shuddering fears & loves of Albions Families Destroying by selfish affections the things that they most admire Drinking & eating, & pitying & weeping, as at a trajic scene. 30The soul drinks murder & revenge, & applauds its own holiness They saw Albion endeavouring to destroy their Emanations.
[ Each Man is in his Spectre's power Untill the arrival of that hour, When his Humanity awake And cast his Spectre into the Lake” ]
