THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 11 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: WITH ME ALONG THE STRIP OF HERBAGE STREWN
Last Line: AND PEACE TO MAHMUD ON HIS GOLDEN THRONE!
Subject(s): TIME;

With me along the strip of Herbage strown
That just divides the desert from the sown,
Where name of Slave and Sultan is forgot --
And Peace to Mahmud on His golden Throne!
