  Never seek to tell thy love - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Never seek to tell thy love is a poem by William Blake.
Never seek to tell thy love, Love that never told can be; For the gentle wind does move Silently, invisibly I told my love, I told my love, I told her all my heart; Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears, Ah!
Thus in the notebook the first stanza of "Never seek to tell thy love" has been marked for deletion, and "seek" has been altered to "pain," while the final quatrain of "I heard an Angel singing" is an editorial arrangement first made by Swinburne.

The first stanza tells something that rarely occurs in poetry - giving advice: "never seek to tell thy love." Basically Blake states that love can indeed exist with silence, not telling others, though seldom and painfully done, no doubt, and the "gentle wind" (the silence of not telling love) can produce goodness in one.
The second and third stanzas tell a tale of how he confessed to someone of his love for her, which must have scared her off to state the fact bluntly ("she did depart").
Lastly, Blake tells of another person who loved the same woman, but the new character never confessed his love (hence the "silently, invisibly"); ironically, however, he gains her love with his silence ("he took her with a sigh").

Never seek to tell your love minor Blake sighting Re: Never seek to tell your love Re: Never seek to tell your love--PS Re: Never pain to tell your love Your chance to help a Linnell!
Generalizing the largest implications ("Never," "never") from the seemingly slender basis of one experience (an act that carries implications of its own), the speaker presents a complex picture of message and audience.
The awkward sequence of the tenses--especially the present indicative "doth depart" (which parallels "does move")--the ambiguity of "love," and the vague reference of "she" ("my heart," the already ambiguous "love"), all work to take us into an unstable ego we might most naturally overhear as directing imperatives to itself.

 Firebrand Theory Theater Company ...............::::::::::::::
Jaime Robert Carrillo plays the unnamed protagonist, a New York immigrant betrayed by both his wife and his city, and everything from The Chimney Sweeper to Never Seek to Tell They Love is recruited to translate his woe — neatly, indeed poignantly at times, but in too laboured and self conscious at others.
Carrillo’s own performance is powerful, his anguish palpable, but the private angel and devil which shadow his ordeal are played with scant originality by his companions onstage, and other characters are thinly drawn, while a promising soundtrack is marred by jerky application.
A company of fairly young performers taking on the poetry of William Blake as the basis for a stage presentation is enough to strike terror into the heart of anyone who regularly has to listen to young Irish companies mangling Shakespearean verse.

Firebrand Theory is based in New York, and its members have varied theatrical training backgrounds: any or all of them could be drafted into Irish drama schools with effect from today to give students a lesson how to speak verse as though it has some emotional and dramatic relevance.
But the company, with admirably controlled choreographed movement and emotional discipline, manage to speak love in all its aspects, as the central Narrator’s soul is laid bare on a park bench, the platform for his life.
This is simple, accomplished and adult theatre in the best sense of the term: moving and mature.
