What is the poem read in the movie, "Unfaithful"?

When Paul Martell is giving Constance a book, she reads a poem aloud...anyone know what it is and who it is by???|||It comes from the poem Persian Love by Omar Khayyam. You can find the entire poem here http://www.lenbracken.com/omar.html


The quote you are looking for is in stanza 13.





One of my favorites btw.|||It is from The Rubyiat of Omar Khayyam.





In particular, I am told, this verse:





Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring


Your Winter Garment of Repentance fling:


The Bird of Time has but a little way


To flutter — and Lo! the Bird is on the Wing.|||The Rubaiyat” by Omar Khayam
