### [71.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.adab.basatin-al-uns.71.115)

طبقهآ مسافران که در آن خانهآ مقیم روان بودند با آن که تجرید را شعار و دثار خود ساخته و بر سیرت صوفیان هرچه داشتند ترک کردند هم از سیلاب فنا امان نیافتند و غریق بحر رحمت و مغفرت می گشتند، و چون یونس اسیر تنگنای شکم ماهی شدند، من در آن حالت خود را در سلک قوم نوح منسلک دانستم و از مشاهدهٔ‌ احوال بحر محیط دست از جان عزیز خویش بشستم، نظم:

> The company of passengers who were travelling in that floating house—notwithstanding that they had made detachment their inner and outer garment,  
> and after the manner of Sufis had abandoned all they possessed—found no refuge from the torrent of annihilation, and were drowned in the sea of mercy  
> and forgiveness, becoming, like Jonah, prisoners in the narrow belly of the fish. In that state, I counted myself  
> among the company of Noah's people, and from witnessing the perils of the encircling ocean, I washed my hands of my own sweet life. Verse:  
> I washed, poetry:
