    Words like "injury" and "misery" contribute to a sorrowful tone.

    Explanation:

    The poem "The Chimney Sweeper" is part of Songs of Innocence and Experience, by William Blake. In it, he presents the plight of chimney sweepers, some of the most oppressed people of his time period. At the time, chimney sweepers were usually children who were poor or orphans, and who were hired in this business. However, this was often more akin to a type of slavery. Blake emphasizes all the sorrow that these children suffer through the use of words such as "injury" and "misery."
