15: [his] pride,H1346 [His] rowsH0650 of scales areH4043 Shut upH5462 [as with] a sealH2368 tightly.H6862

16: OneH0259 one,H0259 is so nearH5066 that airH7307 noH3808 can comeH0935 between them.H0996

26: [Though] reaches himH5381 the swordH2719 it cannotH1097 avail,H6965 nor does spear,H2595 dart,H4551 or javelin.H8302

27: He regardsH2803 as straw,H8401 ironH1270 as woodH6086 rottenH7539 [And] bronze.H5154
