The mood and atmosphere of Blake’s "London‚" written after he "wandered" through the streets of the metropolis‚ is bitter and sombre: "How the Chimney-sweeper’s cry Every black’ning Church appalls." However‚ in Wordsworth’s sonnet the mood and atmosphere is radiant and peaceful and serene: "All bright and glittering in the smokeless air." The tone of Blake’s "London" is despairingly pessimistic:
