It was now the season of spring, and the land was enamelled with the lustre of new-born flowers.
The desert demon-song whipped the sand, stampeding the dust-dervishes before it.
As a fecund cloud laden with the promises of succor she is cleaved upon the mountain. Though spitted upon the peak of manhood, she erodes stony pride with soft
poetry,
philosophy

ON SEEING HER BLUSH.
BY THE KHALIF RADHI BILLAH.
LEILA, whene’er I gaze on thee
My altered cheek turns pale;
While upon thine, sweet maid, I see
A deep’ning blush prevail.
Leila, shall I the cause impart
Why such a change takes place?-
The crimson stream deserts my heart
To mantle on thy face.
