1) I believe that Blake’s poetry had the power to enact social change but he doesn’t appeal to the reader’s imagination. Kids were very much dying in actual life, so I feel he enacts social change by appealing to the reality of what occurred in actual life. I believe Blake wanted readers to empathize for the children who were dying in the soot of their job.
2) This didn’t affect my reading. I fell wherever the text is written will not change my opinion.
