1.  *     HAST THOU ever considered [the kind of man] who gives the lie to all moral law? 1

4.  *     Woe, then, unto those praying ones
 
5.  *     whose hearts from their prayer are remote 3-
 
6.  *     those who want only to be seen and praised,
 
7.  *     and, withal, deny all assistance [to their fellow-men]! 4
