Dost thou know when God doth place them, And caused to shine the light of His cloud ?
Do you understand how the clouds float, those wonders of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
Dost thou know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?
You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,
How thy garments `are' warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south ?

Therefore do men fear Him, He seeth not any of the wise of heart.
