...For Mercy has a human heart,
Pity a human face,
And Love, the human form divine,
And Peace, the human dress.
Cruelty has a Human Heart,
and Jealousy a Human Face,
Terror, the Human Face Divine,
and Secrecy the Human Dress.
The Human Dress is a forged Iron,
The Human Form a fiery Forge,
The Human Face a Furnace seal'd,
The Human Heart its hungry Gorge.
-William Blake, Songs of Experience (A Divine Image)
