Vocabulary; COmparative Table of Stanzas Fitzgerald's five versions collated with the originals, edited with an introduction and glossary by Gordon S. Haight. The Rubaiyat has been rendered into English Quatrains. When Edward Fitzgerald translated these 11th-century Persian poems in 1859 they became something of a sensation after one admiring reader passed them on to his friends--a circle that included Browning, Rosetti, and Tennyson. Omar Khayyam was famous in his own day as a mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher, and although his mathematical studies were once hugely influential in the West, he is known to much of the world today as a poet, and his RUBAIYAT as the chief exemplar of the Arabic verse form "roba'i, " a poem composed in quatrains in which the first, second and fourth lines rhyme.
