For example “How every chimney sweep shouts”(9) “Every blackened church is scary”(10) These two lines refer to the slavery of exploited child workers; putting these kids in horrible situations. The Church is horrified by what it sees. It brings out the idea of the separation of church and state. Other horrible events are marked by death, "And the sigh of the unfortunate soldier"(11) "He runs in blood along the palace walls."(12) The image of sound in the first line with the sigh of the soldiers, could mean death , is a very unfortunate man who is taking his last breath. The image of him dying is shown by the blood running down the walls. The blame for this death lies with the monarchy of London with the reference to a palace. Only the last stanza concerns death.
