Which according to you is the most moving poem of Herbert. Why do you find it so moving? ( MEG 101 ) ( GEORGE HERBERT )

However, many readers find Herbert's poem "Love (III)" to be particularly powerful.


In this poem, Herbert meditates on the boundless love of God and his own unworthiness to receive it. The poem speaks of the immense sacrifice of Christ and the depth of love it represents, and Herbert's humility in the face of this love is palpable throughout. The final lines of the poem, in which Herbert describes himself as a "prodigal," seeking forgiveness and mercy, are especially poignant. The poem's simple yet powerful language, combined with its profound message of divine love and human frailty, make it a deeply moving work for many readers.
