Killed by her beauty, martyred by her word.

I deemed life was tranquillity and rest,

I find it but a never-ending quest;

And I, who sat in quietude and peace,

Toil on a journey that shall never cease.

SHAMSHAD.

[XXXIX.]

Repent not, for repentance is in vain,

And what is done is done;

What shouldst thou reck of me and all my pain?
