ISRAFEL (Page 7)

Published in editions of 1831 and 1845, and several times in

magazines. See comment in the Introduction, page xxiii. Poe derived

the quotation through Moore's "Lalla Rookh," altered it slightly, and

interpolated the clause, "whose heart-strings are a lute"; it is from

Sale's "Preliminary Discourse" to the Koran.
