II. (Himself).

4. Especially that this ease-loving Clergy-Perfection

Has turned his mind a little towards the Doctrine

Is (thanks to) the kindness of these noble father and sons.

Truly your kindness is great, O father and sons.

5. From now onward till (I reach) the heart of saintship,

Whilst, except in you, noble father and sons,

I will not place my hope for protection in anyone else,

I pray you to drag me along with your mercy-hook.

6. Though I cannot repay you in proportion to whatever your favours

have been,

I pray that, with my soul not enslaved by attraction or repulsion,

I may hold fast to your teaching, O protectors,

And may always put my best energy into the endeavour.
