Haste!—deliver and delay not;—
Let my outcasts dwell with thee.[B]
Shelter thou shalt not refuse him,
Lest, with him, his Lord ye slight;[C]
When, at noon, the foe pursues him,
Make thy shadow dark as night.
With thee shall he dwell, protected,
Near thee, cherished by thy side;
Though degraded, scorned, neglected,—
Thrust him not away, in pride.[D]
