Question

Write the critical appreciation of the poem “The Lamb “​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Lamb is William Blake's simple poem, written in a lucid style, conveying his philosophy about the world of children, its bliss, and perfection. It is one of the poems belonging to his "Songs of Innocence" published in 1789. In the "Songs of Innocence," the prevailing symbol is the lamb, which is an innocent creature of God and which also symbolizes the child Christ. The world of it is largely a world of simplicity, purity, happiness, and security. Blake gives us his vision of the world as it appears to the child. Both 'child' and 'lamb' serve as symbols for Christ. The lamb, pure and pretty, simple and innocent, seems the work of a kindly, comprehensible Creator. To the mind, in the state of innocence, the lamb appears to be a fit symbol of life. In this poem, the lamb and the child are identified with Christ who represents purity and innocence as they do, and Blake glorifies the lamb.

The poem opens with the description of the little creature and this description is given by the child who is the speaker here. The first stanza contains a number of natural pictures to build up the lamb's "habitat" but stresses the character and qualities of this meek and mild creature of God. To the child as to the poet himself, the lamb is a wonderful creature of beauty and innocence. The child wants to know who has created it.
