Omar Khayyam's haunting timeless verses were translated into English by Edward FitzGerald and first published in 1859. That first edition is presented here in facsimile accompanied by computer-generated typesetting of the later editions providing a 'complete edition'. Persian astronomer-poet Omar Khayyam writing nearly a thousand years ago picks a path through life's uncertainties musing on fate transience and mortality urging his reader to live in the moment and find joy in simple everyday pleasures.
