 ২৪ There is thy footstool and there rest thy feet where

live the poorest and lowliest and lost. When I try

to bow to thee my obeisance cannot reach down

to the depth where thy feet rest and among

poorest and lowliest and lost.

Pride can never get access to where thou

walkest in the garb of the humble among the

poorest and lowliest and lost, My heart can never

find its way to where thou keepest company with

the companionless among the poorest and lowliest

and lost.
