2. To bring reproach upon; to blemish; to injure. [See Blemish.]

BLAME, noun Censure; reprehension; imputation of a fault; disapprobation; an expression of disapprobation for something deemed to be wrong.
Let me bear the blame forever. Genesis 43:9.
1. Fault; crime; sin; that which is deserving of censure or disapprobation.
That we should be holy and without blame before him in love. Ephesians 1:4.
2. Hurt; injury.

The sense of this word, as used by Spenser, proves that it is a derivative from the root of blemish.
To blame in the phrase, he is to blame signifies blamable, to be blamed.
BLAME is not strictly a charge or accusation of a fault; but it implies an opinion in the censuring party, that the person censured is faulty. blame is the act or expression of disapprobation for what is supposed to be wrong.
