24A wild donkeyH6501 usedH3928 to the wildernessH4057, that snuffeth upH7602 the windH7307 at her pleasureH5315H185; in her occasionH8385 who can turn her awayH7725? all they that seekH1245 her will not wearyH3286 themselves; in her monthH2320 they shall findH4672 her.1234

25WithholdH4513 thy footH7272 from being unshodH3182, and thy throatH1627 from thirstH6773: but thou saidstH559, There is no hopeH2976: no; for I have lovedH157 strangersH2114, and afterH310 them will I goH3212.5
