And water outpoured;
And fruit in abundance, neither bitter nor forbidden;
* * * * * * * * * *
And God will guard them from the evil of that day and will cast on them brightness and joy;
And their reward for their patience shall be Paradise and silk!
Reclining thereon upon couches, they shall neither see therein the sun nor piercing cold;
And close down upon them shall be its shadows;
And lowered over them its fruits to cull;
And they shall be served round with vessels of silver and goblets that are as flagons—
Flagons of silver shall they mete out!...
