Answer 2

The correct answers are option number 2 and option number 4. The songlike nature of “The Lamb” and “The Tyger” is enhanced by the refrain of these lines: “Little lamb, who made thee? / Does thou know who made thee?” and “Did he who made the Lamb make thee? / Tyger! Tyger! burning bright”. The theme in both poems by William Blake (“The Lamb” and “The Tyger”) is creation and origin. The rhetorical questions used throughout the poems show the narrator’s perplexity about the nature of God. In fact, in the poem “The Tyger”, the narrator questions how the same God could create such a gentle creature as the lamb and also a terrifying creature as the tiger (“Did he who made the Lamb make thee?”).
