Артур Шербёрн Харди (Arthur Sherburne Hardy)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

On the Fly-Leaf of the Rubaiyat


Deem not this book a creed, 't is but the cry
Of one who fears not death, yet would not die;
Who at the table feigns with sorry jest.
To love the wine the Master's hand has pressed,
The while he loves the absent Master best,--
The bitter cry of Love for love's reply!
