The Will and the Way

 
Blake: Adam and Eve
  
THE WILL AND THE WAY  
  
I asked a thief to steal me a peach:  
   He turned up his eyes.  
I asked a lithe lady to lay her down:  
   "Holy and Meek!" she cries.  
  
As soon as I went,  
   An Angel came.  
He winked at the thief   
   And smiled at the dame:  
  
And, without one word spoke  
   Had a peach from the tree,   
And 'twixt earnest and joke  
  Enjoyed the lady.  
  
William Blake (1757-1827)
