One hundred songs of the fifteenth-century weaver-poet of Benares, put into English prose by Rabindranath Tagore with help from Evelyn Underhill. Kabir mocks temple and mosque alike and finds God within the breath. The selection made him known in the West, though scholars note that many of these songs may come from later singers in his name.
