London was written by:
William Blake
The narrator is describing-
a
walk
through
London
He is describing how everyone in London is:
affected
with
misery
and despair
everyone is affected by the misery and despair in London,
women
and
children.
The people in power such as the
monarchy
seem to be the real issue and make the living conditions
worse
, not better.
London
represents anger through
emotive language
and repetition
London also shows
hopelessness
, no change is happening and the cycle repeats itself as
new life
is born into the world.
'Mind forged-manacles' shows the
monarchy
controls their
thoughts
along with everything else in their lives.
