Excerpt from New Rubáiyát
The quatrains which I here presume to publish are written in a spirit quite different from Omar's scepticism. Their burden is Faith, and their pur pose to show that not only is unfaith a false and hopeless screed, but that the reason and soul of man find their interior and exterior harmony only when attuned to the key-note of Faith. As the new quatrains constantly keep Omar's Rubaiyats in View, I have appended Fitzgerald's translation (first edition) to assist the reader's understanding.
