You are, I assume, referring to William Blake. They didn't rhyme in Blake's era, but rhyming in Middle English poetry indicates that "eye" was pronounced "eee."

Watching an episode of Batman: the animated series called "Tyger Tyger". But that not-quite rhyme always bugged me and if anybody knows what's up with that I figured buffistas do.

Oh, that's the one where Catwoman gets kidnapped by the mad Moreau guy who wants a mate for his Catman, right?

Ahh OK. Wikipedia says the "tyger" spelling is to make the poem seem ancient. Perhaps Blake was doing the same thing with the rhyme.

yes. It's a very furry episode.

One of the reasons buffistas are awesome--discussion of Romantic poetry, Middle English prounounciation AND Batman: The Animated Series in the same conversation.

Y'all are smart.

Happy birthday to the birthday ladies!

Jessica, sorry about the morning sickness. I'm starting to get a few of those symptoms back in the third tri, lucky me.

Kristin, hope your day improves!
