There is also a Selected Bibliography. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept as well as the beauty and meaning of these wise, inspirational and spiritual poems. 393 pages. Thoreau: "I can find no difference between Sadi and myself... He is not Persian, he is not ancient, he is not strange to me... If Sadi were to come back to claim a personal identity with the historical Sadi, he would find there were too many of us..." Emerson: "Sadi, though he has not the lyric flights of Hafiz, has wit, practical sense, and just moral sentiments. He is the poet of friendship, love, self-devotion, and serenity."

Ali Akbar Shapurzman, translator of many mystical works in English into Persian and knower of Hafiz's Divan off by heart.
