Reread the fourth stanza.

The fives questions indicate the poet's confusion about creation.

The tools show the reader exactly how the tiger was created.

The tools help the reader visualize something being created.

The rhythm reflects the way the poet speaks.

The rhythm adds urgency to the questions posed in the poem.

The rhythm means that the poem should be sung.

The rhythm supports the rhetorical nature of the questions posed in the poem.

Which lines best develop the theme that the poet is unsure of who created something as beautiful and fearful as the tiger?

"Tyger, tyger, burning bright / In the forests of the night,"

"When the stars threw down their spears, / And watered heaven with their tears,"

"What immortal hand or eye / Could frame thy fearful symmetry?"

"And, when thy heart began to beat, / What dread hand and what dread feet?"

Reread these lines from the poem.

In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

1. Answer: The tools help the reader visualize something being created.

Step-by-step explanation: All the references to tools are there to give the reader an image of something tremendously strong, beautiful and potentially deadly, like a machine, being built in a workshop.


2. Answer: The rhythm adds urgency to the questions posed in the poem.

Step-by-step explanation: The regular meter and consistent rhythm and rhyme scheme add to the unnerving, 'pacing' feeling of the poem.


3. Answer: The third and forth examples.

Explanation: In the third example, the verb "frame" carries the meaning of "give shape," and in the forth example, the hand and feet he is asking about refer to those of its creator, continuing the pattern introduced in the two last lines of the first stanza.


4. Answer: The process of creating the tiger is as dangerous as working with molten iron.

Step-by-step explanation: See question 1.


5. Answer: "Dare its deadly"

Step-by-step explanation: Invoking the idea of death paired with that of courage is an effective way of evoking a mood of fear.
