The article concerns the aspect of poetic imagination in the works of selected 17th century metaphysical poets and examines the way these poets were influenced by the Anglican liturgy in the Book of Common Prayer. It analyses the concept of Anglican spirituality and its theological specifics based on the Order of the Morning Prayer in the Book of Common Prayer. There is consequently a description of poetic imagination of Anglican Spirituality and the relationship between poetics and spirituality. The article briefly describes the concept of the so-called metaphysical poets. The works of three selected authors are examined to identify the poetic expressions of theological issues. The theological themes emphasised in Anglican spirituality are compared with those expressed in the metaphysical poetic imagination. The aim of this article is to examine the role of poetics in general theological discourse.
