  • The Prophet's words were true;
    The mouth of Ali is the golden door
    Of Wisdom."
    When his friends to Ali bore
    These words, he smiled and said: "And should they ask
    The same until my dying day, the task
    Were easy; for the stream from Wisdom's well,
    Which God supplies, is inexhaustible.
