This article focuses on the poem "Prayer (I)," by George Herbert. The oddities of George Herbert's poem in structure, syntax, and imagery have exercised most critics who comment on the poem.

Climicus's Greek is also somewhat unusual in that it omits most of the normal definite articles for the nouns, an oddity less unusual in English translation. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1990 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
