25| Abraham, Abraham, you are old and cannot hear:
26| what if you miss my small voice amongst the creaking
27| of your own grief, kill your son unknowing
28| of what he will be, and commit Israel to nothing?
29
30| Abraham, you must know or hope that [God][]
31| will not allow your son to die; you must know
32| that this is a test, but then why
33| are you so bent on Isaac's destruction?
34| Look at your eyes; there is more than fear
35| there. I see in your eyes desperation,
36| a manic passion to do right by your God
37| whom you are not able to see or know.
38
39| Am I too late? I [will try][] to stay
40| your old hands, the knife clenched
41| within them, intent on ending life.
42
43| Will you hear my small voice amongst the creaking,
44| or will it be the chance bleating of a passing ram?
