"You"

You used to believe that the seven curses should hurt you. Think about
food. You should be philanthrophic.

You should want to tell them to eat again. They tell each other that he did
not create you, that he does not create! But then they dream about food.

Listen to the wise!

They are alone and may twist the truth into lies and lies into truth. If
there is no food, you must give the people their food. Believe the people's
god.

Who is the people's god? See that many people will see. With these things
he twists the people's arms. With these things he grabs their legs. With
these things rain falls on your face and your lips are sealed and you cannot
speak.

He exists here, but there are no humans. I heard this way that you do not
believe. You are a fool.
