Patrick Pearse's mystic and visionary poetry is of a religious solemnity and is reminiscent of Walt Whitman's exalted rhetoric and declamatory intensity. Being firmly rooted in Gaelic traditional poetry, Pearse's poems unite Christian and Heathen motifs - with the topos of self-sacrifice always shining through.
