He spent some time in India and returned to Shīrāz. The following verses are some of his:—
“I would not consent to the slaying of others, for I know
That death has taken the bitterness of death from the dag-
ger of my executioner.”
“Devotee, the knot in the string of thy rosary cannot be
loosed without sincerity:
Go, and for a time convert thy rosary into the sacred
thread of the fire-worshippers.”
“A pleasant country is the street of love,
For there all the malice of the heavens is changed to kind-
ness.”
“I am slain by the dagger of that slayer who so shed my
blood
That not one drop of it fell on the ground.”
