Sonnets from Hafez and Other Verses
'Sonnets from Hafez and Other Verses' is a collection by Elizabeth Bridges Daryush, published in the early 20th century. The book features original poems inspired by the 14th-century Persian poet Hafez, blending Bridges' own writings with themes of mysticism and spirituality. Notably, the last fifteen pieces are based on Hafez's odes, aiming to capture the essence of his work rather than provide direct translations. This collection highlights the intersection of English and Persian poetic traditions.
