the people of the earth and the lamb also creates a lot of these things for humans. In the fifth stanza the child tells the lamb who made him. The child says, “He is called by thy name, he calls himself a lamb, and he is meek and mild. He became a little child and we are called by his name” (Blake 538). When he says he is a lamb that means that God calls himself a provider for the galaxy. When he says he is meek and mild the child is referring to a God that does no harm to people, one that is only out to help people. “He became a little child” it is suggests that God is the little child and he is talking directly to the lamb.Now in “The Tyger,” the persona is very different. It is of an older person looking at a tiger and wondering who made this creature. The persona helps to contrast “The Lamb” and also helps to show that God does have a more vengeful side to him. In this poem the person speaking is asking a lot of questions like what immortal hand or eye framed such a fearful creature and if he was happy with his creation. These are the two most repeated lines in the poem. From the second stanza to the fifth stanza the person is questions who made this animal. This person is comparing the animal to fire and that whoever made it is probably a violent creator. The persona differs greatly from “The Lamb.” This may have been because of the five years that has passed between the poem. Blake may have had a bad experience with God in that five-year gap so he looks at him not as meek or mild but violent and pitiless. This person is probably having a conversation with God because you get him asking a lot of questions and there are no answers coming back to him. The persona of these two poems has helped William Blake creature the picture of good and evil.Rhyme is an important part of these poems. Rhyme helps to stress the point that God has created good and bad things. ...
