I have been forsaken in a foreign land: Where are the emblems of Thy faithfulness, O Trust of the worlds? (216:4) The agonies of death have laid hold on all men: Where is the surging of Thine ocean of eternal life, O Life of the worlds? (216:5) The whisperings of Satan have been breathed to every creature: Where is the meteor of Thy fire, O Light of the worlds? (216:6) The drunkenness of passion hath perverted most of mankind: Where are the daysprings of purity, O Desire of the worlds? (216:7) Thou seest this Wronged One veiled in tyranny among the Syrians: Where is the radiance of Thy dawning light, O Light of the worlds?
(216:8)
