All this is proof in more than words,
I am King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
They told me in leaving Teheran,
Danger of eating dirt I ran,—
That out of the realms of the Shah-in-Shah
I should find rulers called Light and Law.
May the graves of their mothers be defiled
That fain with such bosh had their Shah beguiled!
For the more of these Feringhee Kaffirs[19] I've known,
The whiter to me my face has grown.
