[63] None answer'd this; but after Silence spake
by Omar KhayyamEnglish version by Edward FitzGerald
Original Language Persian/Farsi
None answer'd this; but after Silence spake
A Vessel of a more ungainly Make:
"They sneer at me for leaning all awry;
What! did the Hand then of the Potter shake?"
-- from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, by Omar Khayyam / Translated by Edward FitzGerald |
