In the book Bless me Ultima, there are a lot of connections to the two poems
"The Tiger" and "The Lamb". In "The Tiger" the tiger is this fierce scary and sinful creature. The tiger brings sin to people's life. The tiger represents all the sin that is brought to Antonio's life. The sin being when Lupito is shot, and when he learns about the golden carp, and when he is used in the exorcism of his Uncle Lucas. In the poem "The Lamb" the lamb is referred to as being innocent and sin free. The lamb is like Antonio at the beginning of the story. At first Antonio I s free of sin and worries and he is like the lamb. They use the lamb in the poem because a lot of people refer the lamb to the biblical figure Jesus. Jesus was supposably sin free and just like a lamb. There are many connections in Bless Me Ultima to "The Tiger" and "The Lamb".
