'Tis worth not a thought! br Can the Koran a creation, then, be? br br Of that, I know nought! br Yet that the book of all books it must be, br br I believe, as a Mussulman ought. br That from Eternity wine, though, must be, br br I ever have thought; br That 'twas ordain'd, ere the Angels, to be, br br As a truth may be taught. br Drinkers, however these matters may be, br br Gaze on God's face, fearing nought.
