Willliam Blake's was a time in English literature when almost all poets wrote lengthy poems which did not suit the purposes of would be singers who sought short, crisp, tuneful poems longer than ditties. William Blake's poems catered to these types and satisfied them. Those poems were vibrant with a tune and presented an unforgettable picture of what is described in them. Picture of the fallen enemy in Poison Tree, the brightly finished picture of the strong animal in The Tiger and the loveliness of angels, lambs, sleeping children and snow-falling nights in The Night are fine examples of what made William Blake famous.
Imagine a desolate hungry poor child weeping to sleep, with no one there to give comfort and solace. That is when conscientious minds think about how needed angels are to comfort desperate minds in their loneliness. When man turns his face away from another man's sufferings, mankind wishes there be angels and gods to soothe pain and alleviate sufferings. A strong conviction that they are there is the only hope man has in this world. This hope is well reinforced in William Blake's poems. This particular question of belief in angels has been well elaborated by William Blake in his poem The Night, in which he has skilfully drawn a picture of angels visiting the homes of tiny little babies in silent nights, to see whether they are sleeping well and happy, a thing mankind won't care to do.
