The Lamb
The Tyger
Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee,
Tiger, tiger, burning bright
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, woolly, bright,
In what distant deeps or skies
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
Making all the vales rejoice?
What the hand dare seize the fire?
Little lamb, who made thee?
And what shoulder and what art
Does thou know who made thee?
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
Little lamb, I'll tell thee;
And, when thy heart began to beat,
Little lamb, I'lI tell thee
What dread hand and what dread feet?
He is called by thy name,
What the hammer? what the chain?
Fot He calls Himself a Lamb.
In what fumace was thy brain?
He is meek, and He is mild,
What the anvil? what dread grasp
He became a little child
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
I a child, and thou a lamb,
When the stars threw down their spears,
We are called by His name.
And watered heaven with their tears,
Littie lamb, God bless theel
Did de smile His work to see?
Little lamb, God bless theel
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
