Hath he need of thee? then he will toy with thee (?); And he will smile upon thee, and encourage thee.
So long as it profiteth he will cajole thee. Twice or thrice he will shew thee reverence (?); And then he will look at thee and pass thee by (?); And will wag his head at thee.
Take heed that thou be not urgent (?) overmuch; And be not like to them that lack intelligence.
Doth a noble draw near? be thou distant; And so much the more he will approach thee.
Come not near, lest thou be put far off; And stand not far off, lest thou be forgotten (G).
