Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Told in the Gate In The Gate In the arched gateway of fair Ispahan, Where shadows all day long in ambush lurk Ready to steal abroad at nightfall sits Omar, the story-teller. On his breast, White as spun-glass, his hoary beard flows down Until it hides his girdle; his deep eyes Like cave-set pools in gleaming blackness shine; His voice is mellow as a drop which falls, Pure liquid music, in a cistern hewn From out the living rock. Around him sit The chief men of the city, they that be Princes and potentates of Ispahan, All listening tireless to the tales he tells. As there they sit at ease, lapped in delight. Smoking long, fragrant pipes, and nodding grave Their approbation with high dignity. The doleful camels burdened pass, the train Of desert-faring caravan; and veiled The women walk in unseen lovelines; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
