A fine group, but is it really necessary to refer to them to here, and at such length ? ( Pamour ( talk) 11:44, 2 April 2019 (UTC)).
I recall reading somewhere a suggestion that this alludes to the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. That certainly accords with Blake's worldview, and IMO makes a great deal more sense than the factories speculation; but something WP:RS is needed. Narky Blert ( talk) 08:47, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
Blake himself made it clear that the `Dark Satanic Mills' were Lambeth Palace and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, the chief founts of Orthodox C-of-E doctrine which he, of course, refuted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:B685:5E00:E126:2862:472C:6430 ( talk) 16:13, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
I don't doubt the statement that George V said he liked Jerusalem better than God Save the King. However, he does not seem to have said anything at all about its potential as a national anthem; if he had, it would certainly have become a very famous remark. (He may also have liked dozens of other tunes more than he liked God Save the King.) I write this not to try to create a forum-like argument, but to question whether his words might be receiving undue weight in this article. TooManyFingers ( talk) 22:55, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
I don't have Gilroy's book. The statement about her opinion is ambiguous: "the poem" could be referring to "And did those feet...", or to the entire two books of "Milton". In the context in which it's been placed in this article, the distinction matters. TooManyFingers ( talk) 15:48, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
And did those feet in ancient time, Walk upon Englands mountains green: And was the holy Lamb of God, On Englands pleasant pastures seen!
This is clearly stating to any Christian that he means Jesus Christ, who is the Lamb of God. This is beyond dispute. It is a title used for Jesus in John 1:29 where John the Baptist sees Jesus and exclaims, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." and appears throughout the Bible. Please correct this error. 195.213.109.250 ( talk) 08:37, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
