روضهٔ پنجم / The Fifth Garden of Baharestan (On Love and Passion)

The fifth garden (روضهٔ پنجم) of Jami's Baharestan gathers short prose tales and verse anecdotes on the theme of love and passion (عشق و محبت). Its sections dramatize the nature of the lover and beloved, the trials of longing, faithfulness in devotion, and the spiritual meaning hidden beneath earthly attachment. Jami organizes the whole Baharestan into eight themed gardens (rowzeh); this garden is the immediate container for the individual love-themed sections, standing between the entire Baharestan collection and its constituent stories such as this Section 9 and the dervish tale of Section 12.
