When it was day they came into my house and said, “We shall only take the smallest room here.”
They said, “We shall help you in the worship of your God and humbly accept only our own share in his grace”; and then they took their seat in a corner and they sat quiet and meek.
But in the darkness of night I find they break into my sacred shrine, strong and turbulent, and snatch with unholy greed the offerings from God’s altar.
