That line from Blake about the "Chariot of fire" seems to me a reference to the "Chariot of Paternal Deity" in Milton's PARADISE LOST, which comes Flashing thick flames, Wheel within Wheel, undrawn . . . (6.751) Milton based his chariot, in turn, on the vision of Ezekiel, or so a footnote informs me. Andrew Walser University of Illinois-Chicago
