To the Royal Academy

by William Blake (1757–1827)


To the Royal Academy

A strange Erratum in all the Editions
Of Sir Joshua Reynoldss Lectures
Shou[l]d be corrected by the Young Gentlemen
And the Royal Academys Directors
5 Instead of Michael Angelo
Read Rembrandt for it is fit[5]
To make meer common[6] honesty[7]
In all that he has writ
