LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS.




[In justice to the fac-similist who has so faithfully copied the following designs from Blake's works, the publisher would state they were made under somewhat difficult circumstances, the British Museum authorities not permitting tracing from the copies in their possession. In every case the exact peculiarities of the originals have been preserved. The colouring has been done by hand from the designs, tinted by the artist, and the three illustrations from "Jerusalem" have been reduced from the original in folio to octavo. The paper on which the facsimiles are given has been expressly made to resemble that used by Blake.]


Frontispiece. Gateway with eclipse. A reduction of plate 70, from "Jerusalem."
Title-page. A design of borders, selected from those in "Jerusalem" (plates 5, 19, &c.), with minor details from "Marriage of Heaven and Hell," and "Book of Thel."
P. 200. Title from "Book of Thel."
P. 204. Title from "Marriage of Heaven and Hell."
P. 208. Plate 8, from the Same (selected to show the artist's peculiar method of blending text with minute design).

P. 258. From "Milton." Male figures; one in flames.
P. 276. Female figures. A reduction of Plate 81 from "Jerusalem."
