Los smitten with astonishment	B
Frightend at the hurtling bones	C
	-
And at the surging sulphureous	C
Perturbed Immortal mad raging	D
	-
In whirlwinds pitch nitre	E
Round the furious limbs of Los	C
	-
And Los formed nets gins	C
And threw the nets round about	F
	-
He watch'd in shuddring fear	E
The dark changes bound every change	G
With rivets of iron brass	C
	-
And these were the changes of Urizen	H

i b i	A
	-
Ages on ages roll'd over him	I
In stony sleep ages roll'd over him	I
Like a dark waste stretching chang'able	J
By earthquakes riv'n belching sullen fires	C
On ages roll'd ages in ghastly	K
Sick torment around him in whirlwinds	C
Of darkness the eternal Prophet howl'd	L
Beating still on his rivets of iron	H
Pouring sodor of iron dividing	D
The horrible night into watches	C
	-
And Urizen so his eternal name	M
His prolific delight obscurd more more	E
In dark secresy hiding in surgeing	D
Sulphureous fluid his phantasies	C
The Eternal Prophet heavd the dark bellows	C
And turn'd restless the tongs and the hammer	E
Incessant beat forging chains new new	H
Numb'ring with links hours days years	C
	-
The eternal mind bounded began to roll	N
Eddies of wrath ceaseless round round	O
And the sulphureous foam surgeing thick	D
Settled a lake bright shining clear	E
White as the snow on the mountains cold	P
	-
Forgetfulness dumbness necessity	K
In chains of the mind locked up	Q
Like fetters of ice shrinking together	E
Disorganiz'd rent from Eternity	K
Los beat on his fetters of iron	H
And heated his furnaces pour'd	R
Iron sodor and sodor of brass	C
	-
Restless turnd the immortal inchain'd	R
Heaving dolorous anguish'd unbearable	J
Till a roof shaggy wild inclos'd	R
In an orb his fountain of thought	R
	-
In a horrible dreamful slumber	E
Like the linked infernal chain	H
A vast Spine writh'd in torment	R
Upon the winds shooting pain'd	R
Ribs like a bending cavern	H
And bones of solidness froze	C
Over all his nerves of joy	S
And a first Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
From the caverns of his jointed Spine	H
Down sunk with fright a red	R
Round globe hot burning deep	U
Deep down into the Abyss	C
Panting Conglobing Trembling	D
Shooting out ten thousand branches	C
Around his solid bones	C
And a second Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
In harrowing fear rolling round	R
His nervous brain shot branches	C
Round the branches of his heart	R
On high into two little orbs	C
And fixed in two little caves	C
Hiding carefully from the wind	R
His Eyes beheld the deep	U
And a third Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
The pangs of hope began	H
In heavy pain striving struggling	D
Two Ears in close volutions	C
From beneath his orbs of vision	H
Shot spiring out and petrified	R
As they grew And a fourth Age passed	R
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
In ghastly torment sick	D
Hanging upon the wind	R
Two Nostrils bent down to the deep	U
And a fifth Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
In ghastly torment sick	D
Within his ribs bloated round	R
A craving Hungry Cavern	H
Thence arose his channeld Throat	R
And like a red flame a Tongue	D
Of thirst of hunger appeard	R
And a sixth Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
	-
Enraged stifled with torment	R
He threw his right Arm to the north	V
His left Arm to the south	W
Shooting out in anguish deep	U
And his Feet stampd the nether Abyss	C
In trembling howling dismay	X
And a seventh Age passed over	E
And a state of dismal woe	T
