Easter Wings
"Easter Wings", is a poem written by George Herbert in the 16th century. Published in Herbert's 1633 collection "The Temple," It was originally formatted on the page to look like a pair of wings.
== Overview ==
"Easter Wings" is a pattern or concrete poem, meaning that the formatting of the poem reflects its subject matter, and is part of the meaning of the poem. This device refers to the Renaissance tradition of the emblem, which combines a motto with a simple symbolic picture and explanation. This poem was formatted sideways on the page in its first publication, making it look like two sets of wings. Herbert wrote other pattern poems as well, including "The Altar".
Like many of Herbert's works, "Easter Wings" is a religious text, and it focuses primarily on the atonement of Jesus Christ. It is composed of two stanzas. There was early criticism about the typographical formation of the text but in the 20th century it has been recognized as a significant poem.〔Brown, C. C., and W. P. Ingoldsby.
