СКАЧАТЬ and they heard the langurs wailing in the branches, and Sona moaning up the hill; but their Bhagat was dead, sitting cross-legged, his back against a tree, his crutch under his armpit, and his face turned to the north-east.

      The priest said: “Behold a miracle after a miracle, for in this very attitude must all Sunnyasis be buried! Therefore where he now is we will build the temple to our holy man.”

      They built the temple before a year was ended--a little stone-and-earth shrine--and they called the hill the Bhagat’s hill, and they worship there with lights and flowers and offerings to this day. But they do not know that the saint of their worship is the late Sir Purun Dass, K.C.I.E., D.C.L., Ph.D., etc., once Prime Minister of the progressive and enlightened State of Mohiniwala, and honorary or corresponding member of more learned and scientific societies than will ever do any good in this world or the next.

      A Song of Kabir

      Oh, light was the world that he weighed in his hands!

      Oh, heavy the tale of his fiefs and his lands!

      He has gone from the guddee and put on the shroud, And departed in guise of bairagi avowed!

      Now the white road to Delhi is mat for his feet,

      The sal and the kikar must guard him from heat; His home is the camp, and the waste, and the crowd-- He is seeking the Way as bairagi avowed!

      He has looked upon Man, and his eyeballs are clear

      (There was One; there is One, and but One, saith Kabir);

      The Red Mist of Doing has thinned to a cloud--

      He has taken the Path for bairagi avowed!

      To learn and discern of his brother the clod,

      Of his brother the brute, and his brother the God.

      He has gone from the council and put on the shroud

      (“Can ye hear?” saith Kabir), a bairagi avowed!
