"The Pulley' by George Herbert is a secular poem with hints of religious elements woven into it. The title of the poem is quite justified because just as a pulley lifts up objects to a greater height, God, the Creator, too lifts man towards him, through the pulley of 'restlessness'. The rhyme scheme used in the first three stanzas of the poem is ‘ababa' while that of the fourth stanza is 'abcba'. The poem is beautified using a lot of figures of speech such as Alliteration, Antithesis, Climax, Consonance, Hyperbole, Inversion, Metaphor, Paradox, Personification, Pun, Repetition, Synecdoche, and Tautology. An example of Metaphor from the poem is "Bestow this jewel also on my creature" - The gift of 'rest' is indirectly compared to something precious such as a jewel'. The theme of the poem centres on the fact that human beings are bestowed with many gifts by God, yet we tend to be materialistic and forget God. However, the poet expresses that despite having everything, man is a restless being and this is because God did not bless him with the gift of *rest', thus making him turn toward Him to seek rest and peace.
