More poetry from The Atlantic Monthly.
Journeyed westward through Cathay,
Nothing heard be but the praises
Of Badoura on his way.
But the lessening rumor ended
When he came to Khaledan;
There the folk were talking only
Of Prince Camaralzaman.
So it happens with the poets;
Every province hath its own;
Camaralzaman is famous,
Where Badoura is unknown!
