[O]
In
solitudes
I've ever loved to abide
By woods and streams, and shunn'd the evil-hearted,
Who from the path of heaven are foully parted;
Sweet Tuscany has been to me denied,
Whose sunny realms I would have gladly haunted,
Yet still the Sorgue his beauteous hills among
Has lent auxiliar murmurs to my song,
And echoed to the plaints my love has chanted.

XLIX
Alone was she shut forth, for in that hour
Wherein they closed the port, the virgin went,
And full of heat and wrath, her strength and power
Gainst Arimon, that struck her erst, she bent,
She slew the knight, nor Argant in that stowre
Wist of her parting, or her fierce intent,
The fight, the press, the night, and
darksome
skies
Care from his heart had ta'en, sight from his eyes.

The date of its
erection, as stated in an inscription, was 1367-a few years, that is
to say, before Jauna Shāh built the Kālī and Khirki mosques at
Delhi, and it is not unlikely therefore that Jauna Shāh's architect
may have been acquainted with the design of this Gulbarga proto-
type and sought to improve upon it by introducing open aisles
across the closed court and thus
obviating
the need for the admis-
sion of light and air through the surrounding cloisters.
