DGR The Sonnet reading: To Frederick (sic) Shields, on his sketch of Blake's work room and death room, 3 Fountain Court, Strand. This is the place. Even here the dauntless soul, The unflinching hand, wrought on; till in that nook, As on that very bed, his life partook New birth and passed. Yon river's distant shoal, Beyond the steep wynd's teeming gully-hole, Faced his work-table, whence his eyes would stare Not unto any sight that met them there, But to the unfettered irreversible goal. This cupboard, Holy of Holies, held the cloud Of his soul writ and limned, this other one, His true wife's charge, full oft to their abode Yielded for daily bread the martyr's stone, Ere yet their food might be that bread alone, The words now home - heard from the mouth of God D.G. Rossetti, May 1880Frederic James Shields (14 March 1833 – 26 February 1911) was a British artist, illustrator, and designer closely associated with the Pre-Raphaelites through Dante Gabriel Rossetti and Ford Madox Brown.
