1 But now they mock me, men younger than I am, whose fathers I would have refused to put with my sheep dogs.

2 What use to me was the strength of their hands? Their vigor had left them.

3 Emaciated from poverty and hunger, they gnawed the dry land, the desolate wasteland by night.

4 They plucked mallow among the shrubs, and the roots of the broom tree were their food.
