The Lamb

The Lamb"

Little Lamb, who made thee?

Dost thou know who made thee?

Gave thee life, and bid thee feed

By the stream and o'er the mead;

The poem reflects on the idea of God as a loving creator, who provides for all of his creations.

O Rose thou art sick.

The invisible worm,

That flies in the night

In the howling storm
