George Herbert's poem "The Pilgrimage" compares death to a chair because of their similarity in providing 'rest' to the speaker.

A pilgrimage is a journey, a search for the unknown, or at times a religious journey one goes on to get an experience of life and identity. George Herbert's poem "The Pilgrimage" is a comparison of life as a journey, a pilgrimage that one undertakes.

  • In the given poem, the speaker uses an allegorical take on what life is.
  • He then reveals that the actual end of all of life's journey is death.
  • The poem lists the various disappointments, trials and dangers, toils, and snares that one encounters in the journey of life.
  • He concludes, "but a chair / after so fall a journey death", suggestive of the similarity of death and resting in a chair.
  • This comparison of death and a chair is how he believes one gets rest from life's journey.

Herbert believes that while one travels life's journey, a different form of pilgrimage, he also reveals how life is a never-ending process. He then concludes that the only 'rest' or ending is when we die, which is similar to a person resting on a chair.
