The Lamb TPCASTT

Title: A poem possibly about Jesus Christ, the Lam of God, or a poem about the submissive and peaceful nature of the lamb itself

Paraphrase: Does the little lamb know who made it? The one who gave it life and feeds it. The one who leads it by the streams and over the meadows, gave it clothing of wool and a tender voice. The little lamb was made by one who calls Himself by the name of the Lamb, He is meek and mild, and came to earth as a child, both the sheep and myself are called by His name. God bless you little lamb.

Connotation: This poem is written as if it is a collection of questions, but the punctuation remains nonexistent of is only there in times of exclamation or definition or elaboration. The lamb is described, so it creates an image, and the lamb itself serves as a symbol for Jesus.

Attitude: The attitude is inquisitive and curious. It begins by asking questions and then answering them in later lines.

Shift: A shift occurs between the first and second stanza, the poem goes from being rhetorical questions to being a definite answer.

Title: The innocent little lamb was made by a Lamb, and all are called by His name.

Theme: No matter what type of lamb you are, you are called by the name of Jesus, the Lamb who was slain for our sins, showing gentleness and meekness of a child.
