Songs of Innocence and Experience
|
|
(1794) Volume in which William *Blake added to his earlier *Songs of Innocence some deliberately contrasting poems which were variously more cynical, more indignant or more intense. Thus the innocent question about the Creator of the lamb becomes savage when applied to the tiger: Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
