Abstract ​William Blake, a great poet, engraver, and artist, was born in November 28, of 1757 in London. From his childhood he enjoys artistic works and when their parents sent him to painting class, after passing five years, he became a perfect engraver an drawer. He used to compose poem and engraving together, that's why he earned money in this way. In the poem of "The Clod and the Pebble" he explains the meaning of love from two opposite viewpoints. The clod's view is a sound of innocent and purity, but the pebble's notion is the sound of experience. In this research, the author tried to survey the different definition of love in the words of great philosophers and critics.​
