The seventh century poet Tumadir, known as al-Khansa' (a sobriquet that means 'the Snub-nosed Gazelle doe'), survived both her brothers. Her poetic output consists of dirges for her dead brothers. James Montgomery weaves a cahier around his translations from Arabic of a number of these dirges, interspersing observations on several other explorations of death and loss.
