"جولة إلى شيراز عبر طريق كازرون وفيروز آباد مع ملاحظات متعددة حول سلوك الفُرس، عاداتهم، قوانينهم، لغتهم، وأدبهم، أُضيف إليها تاريخ بلاد فارس من موت كريم خان إلى سقوط سلالة زند" [‎١‎٧‎٣] (٣٦٢/١٩٩)

Those who on clay can make their rich repast.
Regardless view, torn by the stormy blast.
The shattered flower. I grant that blushing shame
Should awe the maid, and lead her on to fame;
But love in triumph bears the conquer'd soul.
And the whole world's submiss to his controul.*
Should mighty Caesar, or should Fahfoor bring
The world's great empire, or Irania's king
Bribe with his sceptre as the farthest west.
The son of Sam alone can charm my breast
How unavailing do your censures flow,
Zal is my soul, for him my wishes glow;
His image fills, his praises charm my mind.
The favoured object of all human kind.
Speak not of Foor, of Caesar, or the west,
Inthrond is Zal for ever in my breast!
"Tis not his person, his external form.
Can charm the mind and all the senses warm;
'Tis excellence, 'tis wisdom, love of fame.
That caught my soul, all centered in his name.J Champion.
Her attendants agree to second her wishes; and as Zal was
deeply enamoured of Roodavu by a description he had received of
* Omnia vincit amor et nos cedamus amori. Nearer the translation than the original,
f Should at my feet the world's great master fall,
Himself, his throne, his world, I'd scorn them all;
Not Csesar's empress would I deign to prove,
No, make me mistress to the man I love. Pope's Eloisa.
J My heart's subdued
Ev'n to the very quality of my lord;
I saw Othello's visage in his mind,
And to his honour and his valiant parts
Did I my soul and fortune consecrate.
