What raven note disturbs his musing mood: What form comes stealing on his solitude?
Ungentle messenger, whose word of ill, All the warm feelings of his soul can chill !
"Cease, idle youth, to waste thy days,^' she said, "By empty hopes a visionary made; Why in vain toil thy fleetinglife consume To frame a palace? — rather hew a tomb.
Even like sere leaves that autumn winds have shed.
Perish thy labours, f or— Shi...reen is dead !" He heard the fatal news — no word, no groan ; He spoke not, moved not, — stood trans- fixed to stone.
Then, with a frenzied start, he raised on high His arms, and wildly tossed them towards the sky; Far in the wide expanse, his axe he flung, Andfromtheprecipiceatoncehe sprung.
The rooks, the sculptured caves, the valleys green, Sent back his dying cry — "Alas! Shi- reen ! " THE POMEGRAKATE- TREE.
The legend goes on to relate that the handle of the axe flung away by Ferhad, being of pomegranate wood, took root on the spot where it fell, and became a flourishing tree: it possessed healing powers, and was much resorted to by believers long after- wards.
