1. Hidden away among the abodes my passion and my good counsel established her
Two conditions upon a single foundation

2. Old in the era of life, growing spinsterly
If she bears a boy for me, she will bear one like me

3. She has many sisters in the lands
And her father in time is cut off from progeny

4. She relates to me the truth of what was present with me
And believes not the reports, after me nor before me
