"Say'st thou so?

How should I guess? Alack, poor soul! But stay—

Sure in the reach of art some remedy

Must lie to hand: or if it lurk,—that leech

Of fame in Tebriz, why not seek his aid?

Couldst not thou, Dervish, counsel in the case?"

"My counsel might be—what imports a pang

The more or less, which puts an end to one

Odious in spite of every attribute

Commonly deemed love-worthy?"
