Tyger Tyger, burning bright,

In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In “The Tyger” by William Blake, to what does the “fearful symmetry” of the tiger refer?


its claws

D - it's eyes are the 'fearful symmetry' of the tiger

William Blake is refering to the tigers eyes 'burning bright' in the forests of the night - seeing the two glowing eyes in the woods.
