PEOPLE I NEED HELP!!

I have to a test that’s due TOMORROW and I have to talk about 2 poems for 3-4mins. I’ve chosen Tyger by William Blake and The Cloud by Percy Shelly, I have to talk about the plot of them both and explain what parts have an effect on the reader. I really need help so if anyone can quickly write me some ideas that I can do it would be a massive help <3

Answer:

Im not sure if this will help but i hope it does

Step-by-step explanation:

Punctuation plays a significant role in poems or other literary works as it assists them to create the intended tone or specific effect that helps to evoke the desired response from the audience.

In the given poem "The Tyger" by William Blake, the poet employs 'several questions(punctuation) to convert the poem into an inquiry about the mysterious tiger'.

Blake here, interrogates the character of the Almighty(God) and his creation as reflected hen he says 'Did He who made the lamb make thee? ' as both the 'Tyger'(symbolic of experience) and the 'lamb'(symbolizes innocence' are contrary to each other. He also questions the 'mystifying' tiger by asking the questions like 'Dare its deadly terrors clasp? ', 'what immortal hand ....Could frame thy fearful symmetry?'.
