Blake, Jerusalem 4: the poem's theme, 'Of the Sleep of Ulro! and of the passage through Eternal Death! and of the awaking to Eternal Life', and the Saviour's opening appeal, 'Awake! awake O sleeper of the land of shadows, wake! expand! I am in you and you in me, mutual in love divine.' Man is God asleep in the land of shadows, called to wake and expand.
