In Chapter 9, Poem 18 of the *Mokhtar Nameh*, Attar depicts the seeker's intense bewilderment (*hayrat*) when faced with the infinite manifestations of the Divine. The poem conveys that the soul is constantly tested by sorrow and overwhelmed by the multiplicity of aspects shown to it, preventing the mystic from settling on any single path or concept.

<p>هر روز غمی به امتحانم آمد<br />
وز حیرت دل کار به جانم آمد</p>
<p>از بس که وجوه مینماید جان را<br />
بر هیچ فرو نمیتوانم آمد</p>

## English translation
Every day, a sorrow came to test me,
And from the heart's bewilderment, my soul reached its limit.
Because so many aspects are shown to the soul,
I cannot settle upon any single one.
