            <i class='far fa-square fa-stack-2x'></i>
            <i class='fas fa-heart fa-stack-1x'></i>
        </span>
          Heart on fa-square<br>
        <span class='fa-stack fa-lg'>
            <i class='fas fa-circle fa-stack-2x'></i>
            <i class='fas fa-heart fa-stack-1x fa-inverse'></i>
