The wild bee will not sleep in the shade if there be
moonlight. The rhyme in this verse, as in one about sixty
lines before, has an appearance of affectation. It is,

Tho’ ever so wild
Where woman might smile, and
No man be beguil’d, &c.

the price of which, to those souls who make choice of “Al
Aaraaf” as their residence after life, is final death and
annihilation.

Pennon – for pinion. —Milton.

And the angel Israfel, whose heart-strings are a lut, and
who has the sweetest voice of all God’s creatures. – KORAN.
