On the Exalted Stature and Miraculous Merits of the Quran - part 4

They contain meanings as continual as ocean waves,
Yet exceed the ocean's treasures in both worth and beauty.

Their marvels are uncountable and uncontainable--
Even with repetition, this Book never seems tedious.

-from the Burda of al-Busiri (the Poem of the Cloak) translated by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf
