The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam . UP from Earths Centrethrough the Seventh GateI rose, and on the Throne of Saturn sat^And many a Knot unraveld by the Road;But not the Master-knot ofHuman Fate. 39. /^HERE was the Door to which I found no Key;There was the Veil through which I might not see;Some little talk awhile of Me and Thee There was—and then no more ofThee and Me. 40 ARTH could not answer; northe Seas that mournIn flowing Purple, of their Lordforlorn; Nor rolling Heaven, with all his Signs revealdAnd hidden by the sleeve of Night and Morn. 41
