Read these lines from "the human abstract," in which blake describes the tree of mystery. he
alludes to the garden of eden
and it bears the fruit of deceit.
ruddy and sweet to eat,
how does the allusion affect the mood of this passage?
it creates an intellectual mood because blake knows so much about the bible
the mood is sad, as if blake is regretting the loss of the garden of eden
the mood is reassuring because blake reminds the reader that god created the
garden of eden for humanity
it creates a negative mood, as if blake is warning the reader of potential dangers
ahead
