I agree with the person who said that he was comparing the lamb with the tiger, but i guess we will never know... has any one else noticed that he uses the word lamb alot?? I wonder....

Blake continues his poetic battle of good vs evil in his poem The Tyger. In it's versus he speaks of the creation of the Tyger (evil) and asks God how he could create such a thing. Especially after creating the Lamb (good, Jesus is often associated with lamb).
Tigers and their feeding habits.

At first this poem seems to be about tigers BUT if read in an Irish accent it is clear that Blake is trying to tell us that tigers should be respeceted like gods...and feared. I have dedicated my life to the study of tigers. I am a tigerologist. I can sucessfully mimic a tigers roar. I shall now proceed to do this roar in cyber-form. ROOOAARRRGGGHHHH. Blakes use of the letter 'e' within the poem is his comment on corruption in the church. And virginity (which is the sweedish word for 'no sex')
