  leman'a girmiş şairlerden, kendisinden şikayetçi olunduğu bir gün bezgin bekir'in ağzına dolanan şiiri:
  
  i saw eternity the other night,
  like a great ring of pure and endless light,
  all calm as it was bright;
  and round beneath it, time, in hours, days, years,
  driven by the spheres,
  like a vast shadow moved, in which the world
  and all her train were hurled.
  the doting lover in his quaintest strain
  did there complain;
  near him, his lute, his fancy, and his flights,
  wit's sour delights,
  with gloves and knots, the silly snares of pleasure,
  yet his dear treasure,
  all scattered lay, while he his eyes did pour
  upon a flower.
