The result was a collection of poems in rhyming couplets, designated "Epistles", which were published in instalments.

Las cuartetas (rubaiyyat) de Umar Jayyam, poeta persa de los siglos XI y XII , no se conocieron en Occidente hasta que a mediados del siglo XIX las tradujo al inglés Edward Fitzgerald, cuyo prólogo recuperamos en nuestra edición.
