Question

Read these lines from “The Human Abstract,” in which Blake describes the Tree of Mystery. He alludes to the Garden of Eden.

And it bears the fruit of Deceit,
Ruddy and sweet to eat;

What meaning does the allusion create in this poem?

The Tree of Mystery leads people to do wrong, just as Adam and Eve did wrong in the Garden.

The Tree of Mystery has a snake in it, which is similar to the snake in the Garden of Eden.

When Adam and Eve lied to God, they created the Tree of Mystery.

The Garden of Eden was beautiful and healthy, but the Tree of Mystery is ugly and cannot produce fruit.
