The correct answer is “The rhetorical questions are all variations on the same question: who made you?”. The theme in both poems by William Blake (“The Lamb” and “The Tyger”) is creation and origin. The rhetorical questions used throughout the poems show the narrator’s perplexity about the nature of God. Rhetorical questions are usually asked to lay emphasis on some point being discussed, when no real answer is expected. In this case, the focus of the poems made by the rhetorical questions is on the creator of such creatures. In fact, in the poem “The Tyger”, the narrator questions how the same God could create such a gentle creature as the lamb and also a terrifying creature as the tiger (“Did he who made the Lamb make thee?”).
