Blake and Burns ?s

1. He used the well-known Scottish dialect in his writing.

2. In both poems he talks about just enjoying nature and time, taking it in with one another. This goes against the Age of Reason because his poems seem to be careless and free.

3. Hard times

4. His upbringing was full of visions, so he was a very visual poet and its obvious in his writings.

5. They both are the same in structure. One describes human innocence, and the other, experience. He felt they were both important because they're the two halves of the human soul. In a religious sense, it would be like the two sides of God, the Lion and the Lamb.

6. He looks past what is evident to the eye and goes deeper in both the lamb, tiger, and the city of London. He looks past what most see and in this way he reflects Romanticism.
