The Phylactery: A Poem is a literary work written by Arthur Benoni Evans in 1836. The book is a long-form poem that explores the themes of love, faith, and mortality. The title of the poem refers to a small box containing a piece of scripture that is worn as a reminder of one's faith. The poem follows the story of a young man named Ernest, who is deeply in love with a woman named Edith. Ernest is torn between his love for Edith and his duty to his faith. As he struggles with his feelings, he begins to question the meaning of life and the existence of God. The poem is written in a romantic style, with vivid descriptions of nature and passionate emotions. It is a reflection on the human experience and the search for meaning in a world that can often seem chaotic and uncertain.
