14

"My relativesh7138 have failedh2308, And my  aintimateh3045 friendsh3045 have forgottenh7911 me.

15

"Those who liveh1481a in my househ1004 and my maidsh519 considerh2803 me a strangerh2114a. I amh1961 a foreignerh5237 in their sighth5869.

21

"Pityh2603a me, pityh2603a me, O you my friendsh7453, For the  ahandh3027 of Godh433 has struckh5221 me.
