The speaker narrates his tragic tale in the two poems ‘Chimney Sweeper’ as a poor and small boy who can hardly speak but is forced to sweep the chimneys.

Explanation:

  • ‘The Chimney Sweeper’ is a pair of poems written by William Blake in his poem series ‘Songs of Innocence’ and ‘Songs of Experience’.
  • Through these poems the poet portrays the sorry plight of the chimney sweepers.
  • The chimney sweepers were very small boys between the ages of four and five who were sold off by their parents for chimney sweeping.
  • In the two poems the speaker is a chimney sweeper himself. As soon as his mother died his father sold him off. The little boy could hardly speak distinctly yet he had to yell out ‘chimney sweep’.
  • He narrates his tale of woe, of how he and the other chimney sweepers are exploited and ill-treated by their master.    
  • He heart-touchingly tells how one of the chimney sweepers dreams of paradise and a beautiful life after death.
