And mine ear received a whisper thereof.

In thoughts from the visions of the night,

When deep sleep falleth on men,

Fear came upon me, and trembling,

And all my bones were made to shake.

Then a spirit passed before my face,

That made the hair of my flesh to stand up.

It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance thereof;

A form was before mine eyes;

I heard a still voice.”[704]
