Question

William Blake uses repetition to create mood in "The Lamb." What words are repeated? What tone do these words create?

Answer 1

Blake creates a gentle mood through repetition of words such as little, lamb, and child, as well as phrases such as “who made thee?” and “dost thou know who made thee?" By using such questions, Blake creates a childlike tone that reflects a feeling of wonder at creation and innocence.PLATO

Answer 2

Little Lamb, who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee? Little Lamb, I'll tell thee, Little Lamb, God bless thee!
Each appear twice in the poem. These help the tone because it sounds childish and innocent.
