| So Abram rose, and clave the wood, and went |
| And took the fire with him, and a knife |
| And as they sojourned both of them together |
| Isaac the first-born spake and said, My Father |
| Behold the preparations, fire and iron |
| But where the lamb for this burnt-offering? |
| Then Abram bound the youth with belts and straps |
| And builded parapets and trenches there |
| And stretched forth the knife to slay his son |
| When lo! |
| an Angel called him out of heaven |
| Saying, Lay not thy hand upon the lad |
| Neither do anything to him, thy son |
| Behold! |
| Caught in a thicket by its horns |
| A Ram. |
| Offer the Ram of Pride instead |
| But the old man would not so, but slew his son |
| And half the seed of Europe, one by one |
