<P> `` And did those feet in ancient time '' is a poem by William Blake from the preface to his epic Milton : A Poem in Two Books , one of a collection of writings known as the Prophetic Books . The date of 1804 on the title page is probably when the plates were begun , but the poem was printed c. 1808 . Today it is best known as the anthem `` Jerusalem '' , with music written by Sir Hubert Parry in 1916 . It is not to be confused with another poem , much longer and larger in scope , but also by Blake , called Jerusalem The Emanation of the Giant Albion . </P>
