"The Singing Caravan" by Robert Gilbert Vansittart is a poetry compilation. Excerpt: "THE VIEW OF THE WATCHMEN The pilgrims from the north Beat on the southern gate All eager to set forth, In little mood to wait While watchman Abdelal Expounded the Koran To that wise seneschal, His mate, Ghaffír Sultan. At length Ghaffír: "Enough!" Even watchmen's heads may nod. "Asräil is not rough If we have faith in God." His fellow tapped the book: The Darawish discuss The point you overlook: Has Allah faith in us?"
