In Poem 27, Chapter 35 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar employs the metaphor of alchemy by describing the love of the Beloved's face as a 'perilous elixir' (کیمیای خطر). A single grain of this elixir possesses the overwhelming power to upend both the material and spiritual worlds. The poem also highlights the perpetually renewing quality of this devotion; just as the Divine's beauty is eternal, the seeker's love for it remains ever fresh, rendering any attempt to turn away impossible.
