Silent Silent Night
Read 'Silent Silent Night' by 'William Blake' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
Silent, silent night,
Quench the holy light
Of thy torches bright;
For possessed of Day
Thousand spirits stray
That sweet joys betray.
Why should joys be sweet
Used with deceit,
Nor with sorrows meet?
But an honest joy
Does itself destroy
For a harlot coy.
