1. Do not try to entice me with greed
For I do not incline towards greed

2. I am of those who if you attribute
Something ugly to him, says no

3. I have no place for humiliation
Nor make debauchery my abode

4. And bitter without blemish I choose
Over that which with blemish adorns

5. The warriors of all men are stricken
And not that they inflict me with death

6. And how many a strait I unfasten for them
And how many a knot I untie
