Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFFGHIJKELMJNOPP| Listen to this story how in Baghdad | A |
| A flag and a curtain fell into dispute | B |
| Travel stained dusty and fatigued the flag | C |
| Said to the curtain by way of reproach | D |
| I and thou we are both fellow servants | E |
| Slaves of the sultan s palace | F |
| Not a moment had I rest from service | F |
| In season and out of season I travelled about | G |
| Thou hast suffered neither toil nor siege | H |
| Not from the desert wind nor dust and dirt | I |
| My step in the march is more advancing | J |
| Then why is thy honour exceeding mine | K |
| Thou art upon moon faced servants | E |
| Or jessamine scented slave girls | L |
| I have fallen into prentice hands | M |
| I travel with foot in fetters and head fluttering | J |
| The curtain said My head is on the threshold | N |
| Not like thine in the heavens | O |
| Who carelessly lifts up his neck | P |
| Throws himself upon his neck | P |
