好像火烧乾柴，又像火将水烧开。 使你敌人知道你的名，使列国在你面前发颤。

The desire to be first is really central to this poem and it continues in this stanza: Have thou the honor first thy Lord to greet And join thy voice unto the Angel Choir, From out his secret Altar toucht with hallow'd fire.

想得第一的欲望是这首诗的主题,在这一段中也还是主题：,你要抢先，争取最初迎主的荣光,放开你的歌喉，宛若天使的合唱，接触神坛的圣火像是热烈的篇章。
