Bhagavad Gita - Sir Edwin Arnold

Arnold has done a masterful job with his translation, but I'm not terribly fond of it. His verse form allows him a good deal of freedom, but imposes constraints that may or may not (how would I know?) alter the meaning he conveys. Though a bit murky in spots, his English is serviceable. I recommend it, but not as the only translation you should read. Isherwood's translation, or even Prabhupada's, would help.
