In about 1818, Blake revised the original plates, giving the work the new title of For the Sexes: The Gates of Paradise. He re-engraved some, altered others, rewriting some of the legends and adding three plates of engraved text to the end (Plates 19-21). The final plate is addressed to Satan as the 'God of this [Fallen] World'.
Only five copies of this little book of emblems have survived, one of which was in Blake’s possession at his death.
