Selected verse

Shall vain words have an end?

Or what provokes you that you answer?

4

I also could speak as you do.

If your soul were in my soul’s place,

I could join words together against you,

and shake my head at you,

5

but I would strengthen you with my mouth.

The solace of my lips would relieve you.

6

“Though I speak, my grief is not subsided.

Though I forbear, what am I eased?
