THE LIFE AND LETTERS OF
And out spake fair Flureeza,[1]
His sister eke was she,
"I will abide on thy other side,
And turn thy steed for thee!"
And now commenced a struggle
Between that steed and rider,
For all the strength that he hath

Doth not suffice to guide her.

Have kindly stopped the way,
And all the crowd have cried
aloud,
"We can't wait here all day!"
Round turned he as not deigning
Their words to understand,
- ↑ She was sister to both.
