William R. Alger Quote

With strength and patience all his grievous loads are borne,
And from the world's rose-bed he only asks a thorn.


"Mussud's Praise of the Camel", p. 257. - Poetry of the Orient - 1893 edition


With strength and patience all his grievous loads are borne, And from the world's rose-bed he only asks a thorn.

With strength and patience all his grievous loads are borne, And from the world's rose-bed he only asks a thorn.

With strength and patience all his grievous loads are borne, And from the world's rose-bed he only asks a thorn.

With strength and patience all his grievous loads are borne, And from the world's rose-bed he only asks a thorn.
