| presses the popular belief that sin
| propagates its like. How are these
stanzas significant to the story? The
hymn closes with a welcome to the
| king. How does it compare that of
| the queens? What is the cause of
the difference?

| speech notice his praise to the gods,
his frank discussion of disaffection in
his absence. What is the principal
