The Lamb- Blake
I think The Lamb commented on how people of that time did not particularly focus on religion, rather, themselves. They started to get big headed because of science and started to iodolize science more than God. "Little Lamb, who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee?" is a line that particulary stuck out to me. It reminds humans that they are not all powerful and didn't accomplish everything by themselves. That was my interpretation on the poem so if you have any other opinions/ideas just comment.

It seemed more that they were comparing the lamb with god rather than not focusing on it.
