  quote: ''
  summary: A sequence of quatrains urges turning from mosque, prayer, fasting, worldly
    anxiety, and moral calculation toward wine, tavern fellowship, the cupbearer,
    love, and present joy. It repeatedly reflects on mortality, dust, the limits of
    human knowledge, divine mercy, drunkenness, and a mystical state described as
    love and annihilation.
