Possible additions, etc.

I've run out of steam with this article - it's probably too long anyway, but the Koslowski reference leads to an unstable website, no longer being maintained, so I thought it best to include some of it in the text (under "Themes..."), rather than just referencing it. I'm a newbie and no Blake expert, so additions/deletions probable: - maybe a summary of the poem near the beginning? - maybe a bit on critical reception up to 1924? (Difficult to do as I'm retired and no longer have access to a university library except for occasional visits to London) - maybe addition of a picture to break up the text a bit towards the end? (I'm in UK and not comfortable with adding pictures given the copyright restrictions here). - it reads a bit like a bullet-point presentation, so comments on style welcome. Cheers, everyone.

Inclusion of text of poem

Also, I don't know whether or not including the text of the poem is in line with Wikipedia policy. I think a link to Wikisource is the preferred thing to do? - except that the Wikisource version doesn't match the Erdman text, so have included the latter in the article body. Apologies if incorrect - (also unsure of policy about changing Wikisource material - consensus needed?).It's vital that the poem and the plate are looked at together, so Wikisource needs this to be added as well.
