[43] The Grape that can with Logic absolute

by Omar Khayyam

English version by Edward FitzGerald
Original Language Persian/Farsi

The Grape that can with Logic absolute
The Two-and-Seventy jarring Sects confute:
     The subtle Alchemist that in a Trice
Life's leaden Metal into Gold transmute.

-- from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, by Omar Khayyam / Translated by Edward FitzGerald
