1. I would sacrifice for the gazelle whose speech in grammar addressed me,
Conversing, and so I gathered honey from his lips,

2. And refused the dew from those who passed in hardness,
Until I wished that I were the dust of his lips.

Clarifying for me the virtue of his knowledge,

4. Then we agreed upon an opinion I was pleased with:
My attribute in the nominative case, and his attribute in the accusative.
