Or as says another: I turned to him, what while he girt his faulchion on, and said, "Surely, the sabres of thy looks should stand thee in sword's stead." Quoth he, "The sabres of my looks I keep for those who love, My sword for those who have no wit of passion's goodlihead." When Sherkan. saw him, he said to him, "Ho, champion of the champions!
Whenas I knew me banished from my stead, Straight in my heart a dolorous plaint there grew, That yet therein hath power, And oft I curse the day and eke the hour When first her lovesome visage met my view, Graced with high goodlihead; And more enamouréd Than eye, my soul keeps up its dying strain, Faith, ardour, hope, blaspheming still amain.
So Bedreddin shut himself up and composed the following verses, which he copied in an ornamental hand: My King hath reached the height of lordlihead; The shining path of virtue he cloth tread. His justice blocks the ways against his foes And peace and plenty showers on every stead. He sends the suppliant content away. Words fail, indeed, to paint his goodlihead.
