"The Chimney Sweeper"

I definitely agree with the editor of this textbook.After reading the two version of "The Chimney Sweeper", I have come to believe that the Romantics poets such as William Blake, really does hope to bring up social and political change through their poems. The "Song of Innocence" for example doesn't try to state the reason for political but did through images. It shows that in our political lifestyle, a lot of people seem to believe that as long as they do what they have to do, then they won't have any trouble, nor could anything get in their way. "Though the morning was cold, Tom was happy and warm; So if all do their duty they need not fear harm." Then in the "Songs of Experience", for example, “And because I am happy, and dance and sing, They think they have done me no injury". A lot of people only judge others by what they see through others surrounding and how they look and act, hardly nowadays does anyone try to judge a person after they have learn how others feel and what they are thinking. In the poem, the situation shows that no one even the parents ever tries spend some times to really find out how the others are feeling.
The editors have included the Parliament transcript as a primary source document. It didn't really effect the way how I read Blakes writing. It just help to support the way how Blakes write. At least there is some type of back up to his text.
