Quotes
- “He who died at Azan sendsThis to comfort all his friends:—Faithful friends! It lies I knowPale and white and cold as snow;And ye say, 'Abdallah’s dead!'Weeping at the feet and head.I can see your falling tears,I can hear your sighs and prayers;Yet I smile and whisper this:I am not the thing you kiss.Cease your tears and let it lie;It was mine—it is not I.”
