THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 34 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: THEN OF THE THEE IN ME WHO WORKS BEHIND
Last Line: "AS FROM WITHOUT -- ""THE ME WITHIN TIME BLIND!"
Subject(s): TIME;

Then of the THEE IN ME who works behind
The Veil, I lifted up my hands to find
A lamp amid the Darkness; and I heard,
As from Without -- "The Me within Time Blind!"
