'I am Young & ye are very Old wherefore I was afraid', 1825. 'Lo all these things worketh God oftentimes with Man to bring back his Soul from the pit to be enlightened with the light of the living - Look upon the heavens & behold the clouds which are higher than thou - If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him, or if thou be righteous what givest thou unto him - For God speaketh once yea twice & Man percieveth it not - In a Dream in a Vision of the Night in deep Slumberings upon the bed Then he openeth the Ears of Men & sealeth their instruction - That he may withdraw Man from his purpose, & hide Pride from Man - If there be with him an Interpreter One among a Thousand then he is gracious unto him & saith Deliver him from going down to the Pit - I have found a Ransom - For his eyes are upon the ways of Man & he observeth all his goings'. From "Illustrations of The Book of Job Invented & Engraved by William Blake" [London: 1825].
