How are the last lines of 'The Chimney Sweeper' from Songs of Innocence ironic?
William Blake, the author of 'The Chimney Sweeper' shows his indignation of this concept through the use of irony in the last two lines; 'so if all do their duty they need not fear harm' children should be cherished not abused, their innocence should be preserved, not exploited. There fore their unjust plight should not be treated as a way to earn a pleasant afterlife. Their treatment should be viewed as abhorrent and discontinued. Thanks for using ChaCha!
