Citing G.W. Allen's Readers Guide to Whitman, 28, Farzan (573) notes that "as early as 1866 a noted British orientalist Lord Viscount Strangford, called attention to the astounding affinity of Leaves of Grass, in its spirit, content, and form alike, to Persian poetry.
Strangford also apparently suggested that "instead of wasting his talents on Leaves of Grass" Whitman "should have translated Rumi" Farzan citing G.W. Allen, Walt Whitman Handbook, 474.
A Dutch author, Frederik Schyberg in his 1933 book on Walt Whitman (translated by Evie Allison Allen, the wife of G.W. Allen), also found parallels between Whitman and Rumi, among others.
