And in a favorable hour of time,
At times when fate lends a helping hour
I hunted rabbits and partridges.
I hunted hares and deer within fate's power

So may God never let me see your approval,
Yet God sees not in me a thing of worth
If I do not hunt down every champion other than you.
If I assail not every foe on earth
