FERISHTAH'S FANCIES.
אמ־הםוכ כקבל םאת האל האלהים
ואת־הרצ לא נקםל׃But great wits jump.
Wish no word unspoken, want no look away!
What if words were but mistake, and looks—too sudden, say!
Be unjust for once. Love ! Bear it—well I may!

Wish no word unspoken, want no look away!
What if words were but mistake, and looks—too sudden, say!
Be unjust for once. Love ! Bear it—well I may!
Do me justice always? Bid my heart—their shrine—
Render back its store of gifts, old looks and words of thine
—Oh, so all unjust—the less deserved, the more divine?
