The exercise of comparing literature is futile and insensitive if is not done by comparing the closeness of the ideas. By contrasting the poems of two authors, the reader should be able to recognise at least the style of each one of the poetic voices by both the variations and the similitude of the images. But not only is the style implicated in the central comparison of literature (or any other art), but the conception of the developed art form itself. The attempt in this essay is to confront two poems from major poetry works of the romantic period: “Holy Thursday” from Songs of Innocence by William Blake and “Ode: Intimations of Immortality” by William Wordsworth.

Qué bonita canción. Ayer me di cuenta de que Blake ya no es mi hit. Creo que nunca te pregunté con quien tomas HL II.
No entendí lo de Friolenta.
