WISDOM OF THE EAST

THE DIWAN OF ABU’L-ALA

BY HENRY BAERLIN

Author of "In Pursuit of Dulcinea," "The Shade of the Balkans," "Yrivand," etc.

The stars have sunk from the celestial bowers,
And in the garden have been turned to flowers
Mutamid, in captivity.

NEW YORK

E. P. DUTTON AND COMPANY

[1909]

Scanned, proofed and formatted at sacred-texts.com, December 2008. This text is in the public domain in the US because it was published prior to 1923.
