Verse Concepts
Tear yourself away like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter
And like a bird from the hand of the fowler.
Then the lame will leap like a deer,
And the tongue of the mute will shout for joy.
For waters will break forth in the wilderness
And streams in the desert.

Like a gazelle or a young stag [taking me home]
On the mountains of spices.”
