“The Tyger” by William Blake Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies Burnt the fire of thine eyes! On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand, dare seize the fire? And what shoulder, & what art, Could twist the sinews of thy heart? And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand? & what dread feet? What the hammer? what the chain, In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp? When the stars threw down their spears And water’d heaven with their tears: Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee? Tyger, Tyger burning bright, In the forests of the night: What immortal hand or eye, Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The poem "The Tyger" by William Blake is a highly symbolic poem that seems to have some personal elements of Blake's own spiritual philosophy. The poem tells of the wonderful creation of the majestic tiger, an animal of immense strength and terrifying appearance.

The speaker exclaims at the immense strength and bravery in the creator's making of the fearsome animal such as the tiger. Tigers are symbolic of their fierce and terrorizing nature, scaring people and a being of brute force and terror inducing. He exclaims that whoever made it is capable of extreme strength and but also creating such a horrific creature as the tiger. This symbolic image of the co-existence of good and evil, beauty and beast in the world must mean something. And the God who created this dualities must also be capable of having an immense characteristic too. It can be concluded that the creator of this being is a passionate and energetic creator.
