The Tiger-William Blake (1 December 2015)


Tiger, tiger, 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?

Thee : You
Thy : Your
Thine Yours
Aspire : Have ambitious

Sinews : A piece of fibrous tissue joining muscle to bone.
Anvil : An iron piece on which metal is hammered and shaped.
Furnace : An enclosed chambered for heating material to very high temperature.
