I am looking for the beginning of what I think is a poem or quote. It was refereed in a movie, named "At the Heart of it" The quote is "Through out all eternity, I forgive you, you forgive me" The authors last name is Blake. If anyone has any if any information about this that would be great.
It sounds like it might be from William Blake's (1757-1827) epic poem Jerusalem. I can't seem to find the exact quote right off, though. The closest I come is the opening lines of Plate 91 (he calls the separate cantos ' plates' because he illustrated the book himself):
It is easier to forgive an Enemy than to forgive a Friend;
The man who permits you to injure him, deserves your vengeance.
Not quite what you're looking for, D-beck, but perhaps a start.

I finally found it. You and I were looking for the same information. I was just watching " The heart of me " I have seen it about 10 times and the forbidden couple is in the park reading from a book pf poetry by William Blake. They refer to this poem as " An unwedding gift" throughout the movie. For months that was what I was using for search criteria. The alst response to your post answered both our questions. Broken Love, not An unwedding gift. I wonder if the name of this work had been changed over the years?
