1Spring high, O Barley, and become much through thine own magnificence: p. a269 Burst all the vessels; let the bolt from heaven forbear to strike thee down. 2As we invite and call to thee, Barley, a God who heareth us, Raise thyself up like heaven on high and be exhaustless as the sea. 3Exhaustless let thine out-turns be, exhaustless be thy gathered heaps, Exhaustless be thy givers, and exhaustless those who eat of thee.
