$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe \ | increase!) Awoke one night from a deep | | dream of peace, And saw, within the | | moonlight in his room, Making it rich, | | and like a lily in bloom, An angel | | writing in a book of gold. Exceeding | | peace had made Ben Adhem bold, And to | | the presence in the room he said, "What | | writest thou?" The vision raised its | | head, And with a look made of all sweet | | accord, Answered, "The names of those | | who love the Lord." "And is mine one?" | | said Abou. "Nay not so," Replied the | | angel. Abou spoke more low, But cheerly | | still; and said, "I pray thee then, | | Write me as one that loves his | | fellow-men." The angel wrote, and | | vanished. The next night It came again | | with a great wakening light, And showed | | the names whom love of God had blessed, | | And lo! Ben Adhem's name led all the | | rest. | | | | -- James Henry Leigh Hunt, "Abou Ben | \ Adhem" / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
