ABSTRACT
PROFESSOR NICHOLSON has laid the students of Oriental learning under many obligations. His History of Arabic Literature is a monument of industry; his monograph on Sufism, a marvel of insight and illumination; his translation of Iqbal’s Israrkhudi, an achievement of enduring fame. To these many gifts he has added one more, of equal and abiding interest, in his charming little volume of Eastern Prose and Poetry.
