"The Little Boy Found" is a poem by William Blake, first published in 1789 as part of his collection "Songs of Innocence." This collection, along with its counterpart "Songs of Experience" (1794), explores the two contrasting states of the human soul. "The Little Boy Found" serves as a companion piece to "The Little Boy Lost," also found in "Songs of Innocence." The poem is a narrative of hope and divine intervention, depicting the journey of a lost child who is eventually found by God.

The poem consists of two quatrains, with a simple AABB rhyme scheme that enhances its lyrical quality. Its language is straightforward yet profound, embodying Blake's characteristic blend of simplicity and depth. The narrative begins with the child's despair and fear as he wanders alone, but transitions into a comforting resolution when the child is found by a benevolent figure, representing God, who leads him back to his mother's arms.

Blake's work is notable for its themes of innocence, redemption, and the protective care of divine providence. "The Little Boy Found" exemplifies these themes, portraying the innocence of the child and the comforting presence of a higher power in times of distress. The poem also reflects Blake's critique of the societal and religious norms of his time, advocating for a more personal and compassionate spirituality.

The illustration accompanying "The Little Boy Found" in the original edition of "Songs of Innocence" further enriches the poem's meaning. Blake, an accomplished artist, created intricate engravings for each of his poems. The artwork for this poem visually echoes its themes of guidance and protection, with imagery that complements the text's narrative of being lost and found.

"The Little Boy Found" remains a significant work within Blake's oeuvre, illustrating his poetic and philosophical exploration of innocence, experience, and the divine. It continues to be studied and admired for its literary and artistic merit, as well as its profound emotional and spiritual depth.
