The Little Vagabond is a 1794 poem by William Blake in his collection ''Songs of Innocence and of Experience''. His collection, ''Songs of Innocence'' was originally published alone, in 1789. The scholar, Robert Gleckner says that the poem is a form of transformation of the boy in the poem "The School Boy," from Songs of Innocence. 〔Gleckner, Robert F. "William Blake and the Human Abstract." PMLA 76.4 (1961): 373-9. Web.〕 ==Summary and Structure== In "William Blake and the Ten Commandments," critic Paul Kuntz summarizes the main theme of the poem: it gives us a view into the lives of those who get drunk on Sundays versus those who choose to attend church. 〔Kuntz, Paul Grimley. "William Blake and the Ten Commandments." Soundings: An Interdisciplinary Journal 83.2 (2000): 427-51. Web.〕The poem tells the opinion of the boy who believes that more people would choose to go to church if there were alcoholic beverages. This is because he sees how happy those in the alehouse are, therefore he believes church should have a similar atmosphere and people would be more willing to attend. Also, that it would not be sinful to make the church similar to the alcohol-serving establishment because God wants to see his children happy. This poem has four stanzas of four lines each. It has an AABC rhyme scheme in the first stanza, but an AABB rhyme scheme in the last three.
