Question

Explain how they differ using supporting evidence from the poems

Answer 1

The Lamb

Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee,
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, woolly, bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee?
Little lamb, I'll tell thee;
Little lamb, I'll tell thee:
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is meek, and He is mild,
He became a little child.
I a child, and thou a lamb,
We are called by His name.
Little lamb, God bless thee!
Little lamb, God bless thee!

Answer 2

The Tyger

Tiger, tiger, burning brigh
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And, when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?
Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry

Answer 5

Answer 6

After reading the first poem, I think it is mostly about religion. It talks about "who made thee" and people believe that God created all things. in the last part, it also says "God bless thee". I guess this poem is about creation. Its just a guess. I'll read the second now then let you know.

Answer 7

Reading the second poem, it became clear that they were talking about how man has destroyed the good things, and in the end they mentioned the lamb and He who made it.

My guesses: The first id about creation.
The second is about loss and destruction.

Answer 8

In the first, the tone is cheerful and innocent. In the second it is the tone of someone who has seen many bad things happen n life and does not like it.

Answer 9

They are different because of their message and meaning and tones. I hope that this helped you. :) @amandarose23
