THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 101 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: AND WHEN LIKE HER, OH SAKI, YOU SHALL PASS
Last Line: WHERE I MADE ONE -- TURN DOWN AN EMPTY GLASS!
Subject(s): TIME;
And when like her, O Saki, you shall pass
Among the Guests Star-scattered on the Grass,
And in your joyous errand reach the spot
Where I made One -- turn down an empty Glass!
