²⁴ a wild donkey^(A) accustomed to the desert,^(B)
    sniffing the wind in her craving—
    in her heat who can restrain her?
Any males that pursue her need not tire themselves;
    at mating time they will find her.

²⁵ Do not run until your feet are bare
    and your throat is dry.
But you said, ‘It’s no use!^(A)
    I love foreign gods,^(B)
    and I must go after them.’^(C)
