Snaith // London - CAMELS and Analysis

I wander thro' each charter'd street,
Near where the charter'd Thames does flow. 
And mark in every face I meet
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.

In every cry of every Man,
In every Infants cry of fear,
In every voice: in every ban,
The mind-forg'd manacles I hear 

How the Chimney-sweepers cry
Every blackning Church appalls, 
And the hapless Soldiers sigh
Runs in blood down Palace walls 

But most thro' midnight streets I hear
How the youthful Harlots curse
Blasts the new-born Infants tear 
And blights with plagues the Marriage hearse 

"Thro' each charter'd street"
Suggests they've been imposed upon man (chartered - laws)
Imposed - society and government taking over

"The charterd'd Thames does flow"
Charter'd, no one allowed to bathe/put certain things in

"And mark in ... / Marks of weakness, marks of woe"
Greyish skin, bruises, boils, no teeth, may have rickets
Can't make choices - to weak
No enjoyment - woe
Repition shows everyone was dealing with problems

"In every cry of every man / in every infant's cry"
Everyone, not just one person
Repition illustrates size of problem

"The mind-forg'd manacles I hear"
Manacles - Freedom of speech/movement
Trapped in the cycle - Can't escape
Are Blake's questions still relevant today?

"The chimney-sweeper's cry"
Chimney sweepers - usually young boys, from the age of 4 until they were too big to fit 
Often starved, with fires lit beneath them them to make them faster
Cry - perhaps for mother or metaphor for the pain they were feeling?

"Every black'ning Church appalls"
Black'ning - maybe literally due to lack of upkeep, black due to dense fog
Black'ning - due to lack of morals, vereing from purity

"The hapless Soldiers sigh"
Hapless - hopeless/desolate
No support for them after wars

"Runs in blood down Palace walls"
Palace causing wars and problems
Words now running the walls

"The youthful Harlot's curse"
Youthful Harlot - young prostitutes
Curse - poverty/illnesses they can't escape from
Can't escape their poverty

"The new born Infants tear"
Young girls child
Capital I implies there are lots of them
