O the charming (?) the pampered height[240] 2

Of the daughter of Ṣion!

Unto her shepherds are coming, 3

With their flocks around,[241]

They pitch against her their tents,

Each crops at his hand.

“Hallow[242] the battle against her,

Up, let us on by noon.”

“Woe unto us! The day is turning, 4

The shadows of evening stretch.”
