THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 5 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: IRAM INDEED IS GONE WITH ALL HIS ROSES
Last Line: AND MANY A GARDEN BY THE WATER BLOWS.
Subject(s): TIME;
Iram indeed is gone with all his Rose,
And Jamshyd's Seven-ringed Cup where no one knows;
But still a Ruby kindles in the Vine,
And many a Garden by the Water blows.
