However, in difference to the Servant mythologem, Lamb is recognized and honored by the whole cosmos. From Wordnik.com. [Expecting Rain] Reference
This is the another figure - appearing, like in Revelation, with the duplication and further differentiation of the mythologem - but here the pair is completely separated (ibid., p. 336). From Wordnik.com. [Expecting Rain] Reference
While the same fundamental mythologem is present in both cases, it seems that in Jung's case it left beside or only marginally present, in Dylan's opus as well as in his performances it occupies central part. From Wordnik.com. [Expecting Rain] Reference
Therefore, the humiliating aspect of the mythologem can be fulfilled only by the man-child, which symbolizing the more conscious and personal part of the Self confronted with the outside world, is connected with the empirical man and his ego-bound personality.

The same mythologem is also active in Dylan's opus, where - with the inclusion of the deepest part of the psyche - came to the repetition and extension of the transformation process, explicitly expressed in Dylan's song "Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again" from 1966.

Here the further differentiation of the Suffering Servant archetype occurred with its division or duplication into two figures: the apocalyptic Lamb and the male child, which in a context of the individuation process symbolize the transpersonal and personal Self - which only together can fulfill all aspects of the mythologem.

This is particularly so, because in Dylan's opus the basic mythologem is not confined on the single poems - despite their deepness and complexity - but forms the opus as a whole; it is extended even above the single albums, so that some of his greatest songs became the victims of that wholeness and have been thrown away from the albums.

Since in all these cases is active the same mythologem (which, as it seems to me, first explicitly appeared in the Book of Isaiah, especially in the Servant Songs) it is also not just coincidence that the same elements present in the Servant Songs are also present in "Shelter from the Storm" - the Dylan's song that prepares the second part of the extended individuation process.

Therefore, we must here speak of the repetition of the basic mythologem, which was activated three times, every time with some variations and extensions: the first activation of the mythologem can be placed in 6th century B.C. in Babylonian captivity (or even earlier in 8th century in First Isaiah, coming with Yahweh's theophany from about 740.
