>I want to skip Jerusalem
Why would you skip one of his greatest works? Even Blake himself spoke highly of it.

In his letter to Mr. Butts, Blake spoke of Jerusalem, saying: "I can praise it because I dare not pretend to be anything other than the secretary whose authors are in heaven. It's the grandest poem this world contains, for the spirit of truth dictated it morning after morning, sometimes twelve, sometimes twenty or fifty lines at a time. What now seems to be the labor of a long life was produced without labor or study and quite often against my will."
