"Little Lamb who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee?..."
The Lamb is a short poem by William Blake that was originally published in 1789 within Songs on Innocence (1789), a work that was later combined with Songs of Innocence and of Experience (1794). This was due to Blake writing Songs of Innocence as a contrary to Songs of Experience.
The Lamb is the counterpart poem to Blake's poem: The Tyger in Songs of Experience.
William Blake (1757-1827) was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake's work is today considered seminal and significant in the history of both poetry and the visual arts.
