Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.”

for that God has preferred in bounty
one of them over another, and for that
they have expended of their property.

guarding the secret for God’s guarding.
And those you fear may be rebellious
admonish; banish them to their couches,
and beat them.”
